Hi All!
Yesterday I picked up a pair of babies from a breeder for possible future breeding.
This lil dude seems to have a strange feather texture, like those of lorikeet head feathers. The tip of each feather on his rump and body are elongated, and some head feathers have a black dot on the tip. Nothing I search in mutations mentions this...?!
Of the 500 or so birds in the breeder's aviaries, 2 adults had the same feather texture and colouring (couldn't see if boys or girls but I can ask breeder). Another few thousand she has bred, in 20 years she has bred this 3.
Anyone have any info on this? It's very striking and pretty, I've never seen it before.
This is my first post, thank you all for your help
