Does anyone know the current price & availability of the Pearl and Fawn - Pearl longtails?
I saw some straight pearls in an article just now and fell in love with them. I'm imagining fawns-pearls would be nice too.

I paid $145 for my Fawns. Pearls were about $450 but have seen them around the $250 now.

Can anybody direct me to a pic of the pearl longtail mutation

I started combining our
crème-ino mutation

with the grey mutation

To become a ino-grey mutation combination
that looks a bit like pearlcolor?

I love the greys :D
Pics of peralies are usually only to be had in magazines at the moment, because they are still uncommon. But if you get your hands in the Birdkeeper mag with the hooded parrot on the front there's an article in there, and at the end of every just finches mag in the classifieds section there's a pic in one of the advertisements :)

Birdkeeper magazine isn't common over here... if maybe somebody could scan the pic and send it (don't post it for copyright) to my email?
