How long have you been living in Victoria for? From what I have read on the forum, it isn't possible to breed blues or Australian blues anywhere but Victoria... haha.

Hi BOF33
I am sure she is not a lot of peoples cuppa ( which is totally fine by me ) the world would be a boring place if we all liked the same things. I think like most people that it is hard to beat the beauty of a normal gouldian but I also love gouldian mutations. She was bred in canary cabinets.
cheers, John

Thanks for the info Gary

They will be beautiful birds Paul

Rich it will be an interesting breeding season for me as her parents will be going again and other combinations with her blue and double split siblings.not to mention the other mutations I am puting together.

I think like most mutation breeders we all keep heavily documented records of our breeding results.
I for one would be very interested in seeing yours at the end of this season.

Good luck mate..!!
