Aussie Finch Forum

Couple of seasons ago, I got this male birds out of the blue from one of my standard pairs.
He turned out to be a good male and I bred him to a red head cinnamon hen. they gave me the below hen.
d-girl-2.jpg[/attachment] she turned out into a beautiful hen. All white feathers turned yellow. with a nice red head.

I am waiting for this little one to turn 1 year old and hopefully get few more out of her!

Do you have a current picture of them with the red heads?

There's a few pied stars being bred in Australia now. Yours are nice birds too.

I will take the pictures this weekend and update.

The male (dad of female pied) is only visible when we catch the bird and expand his wings. He only has two white flight feathers. He would look normal red face if we take a normal picture.

The hen is more pied than her dad. All white feathers turned into yellow. I will get her pictures this weekend

Attached the pictures of the pies hen. She is second gen pied in my collection. I will delay breeding on this bird and see what she produces with unrelated male in spring 2025.

Oops pic did not come through.
I have problems with pic sending too - being not so good on the old computor.
