Hello, I recently purchased a pair of ringnecks to add to my breeding flock. I was told it was a Cinnamon Yellow Head, but since I'm kinda new to ringnecks I wanted to see if I could get someone else to confirm it. Also, I was lucky to get them right before the season and they produced 4 babies already!

The female looks like a turquoise pallid and the make could be a cinnamon green or a pallid, we need pictures of the back in better lighting if possible.

This forum is great but not the best place for mutation ID, there are lots of great mutation groups on Facebook that I recommend :)

He also looks pallid green. This pairing will most likely produce all pallid greens, but if he is split blue you may also get pallid blue and pallid turquoise.

So this was this pair result. It looks like 2 pallid green and not sure on the other two. Any thoughts?

This picture but it looks like your babies are being plucked.

Hmm hadn't noticed. I'll have to check them out tomorrow. I really hope that's not the case
