What COLOR of lacewing in your first pair?

Second pair you will get greens and greens split to lutino. If your female is split to blue you may also get blues. If your male is split to lutino you may get lutinos. If both of these things are true you may get albinos.

Ok so that is a turquoise lacewing.


Your female is a green series Ino, and Ino is sex linked. Your male is a parblue lacewing. Parblue is co Dominant and lacewing is sex linked.

So you should get green males split to Ino and lacewing, and green lacewing females.

Just my personal recommendation here; if you care about what color you are going to get, and you want to get anything besides green babies, don't breed with lutino females. If you are just breeding for pet quality and don't care about color, then go right ahead.

In these two pair you have 3 colors of birds, but unless they are split to things you don't know about, you are only going to get greens and green lacewings. Your green lacewings will be really pretty, but not worth much to mutation breeders since they are green and they are female. The only way they will be able to produce lacewing is if paired with a lacewing male, and lacewing males can produces lacewing on their own.

Like I said if you don't care about color it doesn't matter, but if you are raising anything other than hand raised tame sweet pets, you are going to have a really hard time finding homes for all those plain green babies.
