I know her color is kind of plain, but not to me! Thank you they did think she wasn't pretty, and many had passed her by... A mint!! I thought she might be too but just haven't seen any other like her, so yeah she's special!!! ;) ;) ;) Her name says it all! She's flighted so like nothing more than to Bam show up in your shoulder and say hi! She also likes to break out if her cage at night and just show up! Keeps me guessing on how she gets out!!!!

She doesn't have any color on her body... So mint? Will change the profile to reflect that!

FYI: This link has some nice pics of different mutations I never knew existed.


Gotta say once again... Mints are SOOOOO PRETTY!!! I want! I want!


Green-cheeked Conures ? Avian Resources

That is a great link! I think she is split between the turquoise cinnamon, and the mint! She is lighter than the turquoise cinnamon they have pictures of her tail featheres match the mint and her body is all grey, but her grey is darker... So I guess almost mint??? Great site thanks

Turquois Cinnamon and Mint look very much alike, the former being darker and a more blue-ish. Tah-Dah is right between the two in my opinion. I'm going to stick with calling her a Mint because that's such a cute name for a mutation, shorter and easier also.


Yoda is a "Ultra-High Red Yellow-Sided Green Cheek Conure" and boy howdy do I wish there were some easier, ONE WORD name for that mutation!! Maybe I should make one up... how about.... Prismatic Green Cheek Conure. :D I like it...



I hearby declare as the Ruler of My Own Little Reality, that all Ultra-High Red Yellow-Sided Green Cheek Conure mutations are now to be called PRISMATIC Green Cheek Conures. :D

I second that! Let's see a pic of Your Yoda! The prismatic GGC! Ta-dah will stay Almost Mint! I think that pretty pretty Mint was an opaline mint anyway... Lol I love all the GCC, the standard color is beautiful as well. Everyone needs to post a pic of their GCC just so we can admire them in all their shades of glory,!!!!!

Is there such thing is a prismatic yellow sided turquoise GCC? Paris has colors like red and regular green around her eyes and under neck and chest.
