saw your post asking for help loading pics before I saw you had managed to get some on the site.
If its multiple pics you are having problems with, try putting the pics on your desktop not in a folder and loading from there.
I will load pics for you if you are still having problems.
Very nice canaries too, love the copper coloured one.

Definately red factor, and very deep and pure at that. Possibly some green in the blood, which is what makes the red go bronze, but could just be a dark factor gene (which is what I would tend to think) Lizard? only if it's poor quality. (Which many are) Again the markings could be green blood. Some things are hard to pick purely by eye. What comes out in the young is sometimes a help. If you like reds this is a keeper.

Thanks everyone, was sold to me as a bronze and she is a beautiful girl which is why I'd like some advice on her babies as I think I did her a disservice breeding her to my "rusty" boy. Have just read Bluebutterfly's advice here after sending her a jargled pm re my lack of computer skills. Will try the desktop bit tomorrow.
Jay don't know about the lizard suggestion as have only ever seen them at Bird world and her markings aren't really like those. See what you all think if I can master the multiple photo posting trick

Personally I don't think it's a lizard. Bit hard to teel from the photo but the shape doesn't seem right. Did you feed colour during the last moult?

I like to see breeders succeed in breeding true red factors (if that is their interest) not have to rely on colour feeding, that's for them that can't breed true. That could get me into trouble but it's my oppinion. I grew up with genetics and breeding true to colour and stick to it as the way of a true breeder.
