YAY! So my breeder is sending us some more birdies next week!

We're getting a breeding pair of Yellow-Crowned Black Eyed Clear (BEC) Kakariki (YES!!! They are my favourite! ) a single male Red-Fronted BEC for our girl Bou, and a mature bonded breeding pair of Princess Parrots who are normals split to cinnamon, blue and silver.

Can't wait til next Tuesday!!! *squee*

EDIT: These are Yellow-Crowned BEC's ^^

Beautiful birds! Congrats
My mom has a pet Princess parrot "Patches". He's so entertaining and funny, but typical grass keet doesn't tolerate any touching.

Strange to see Princesses with normal beaks! Our guy, Kermit, of the deformed beak, has a father who was "lime" but I haven't found that mutation. From memory, it was paler than the normal colours. The only mutation I've seen that I especially like is pied. I don't know what Kermit would do with a hen Princess... he spends time with other species especially wieros.

Thanks everyone!
Actually Raven, it was 'Patches' who inspired me to make the decision to get our pair. ;P

I know what you mean Mike17! I used to own a Jenday (rescued her) with a deformed beak and so whenever i saw a normal Jenday...it just looked weird to me.

A face only a Mother could love <3

Yep, this pair produces lime (also called cinnamon and faded), blues and silvers. Lime is just, yeah, paler than normal.

Aww! Thanks I just only saw this old post today! Patches would be happy LOL. He's such a funny guy, and his voice when he talks always makes me laugh Maybe your male breeder will pick up some words too

Kinny! You have many Kakarikis (I am jealous because they are really cute and colorful! I want a second one), but I have a question! What is black eyed clear I always hear of it! So what is black eyed clear and even more in question of what color is the iris when dilated???
