Aussie Finch Forum

Macksta,
before my comments are taken out of context maybe you could read all my comment before responding....I have stated it again below in case you missed it!!

"My comment about the strength of the dilute refers to their numbers and availability.....they are clearly not as strong as the WB as their numbers are far less...that was my point..."

I never stated the dilutes are weak...I don't consider any gouldians to be weak!!!

How do you know they are not as strong as WB unless you know of evidence of such?
Your statement was pretty clear, I dont think it meant anything else.

Before Tino, Coloured feathers and Julie were here none of you gouldian gurus ever mentioned Recessive Dilutes before. I wonder why?
Plenty of people are after white breasted birds, I dont know anyone after Recessive Dilutes. They are more of a specialist mutation which could be focused on to increase numbers and to have a little bit more understanding of the bird.

People on the forum are reading these threads because they are looking for quaility information not guesswork from people who dont know anything about them.
Tino and CF have been breeding for a long time, lets listen to these guys.
No wonder everyone is confused.
