Does anyone have or know of these or such a thing as Par Blue. Have a dilute cock bird still colourig up and is quite blueygreen on its back compared to a dilute but still has the bluegrey under the beak as the dilutes have. Would anyone have photos? Looked at some last night but were all hens. Maybe he is a definate Dilute/Blue and is showing it. Will have to take some photos later. I was told it is Parblue. Dont know who the parents were other than a Green hen and Yellow cock. And what its worth puting it too?
Have a Yellow hen that maybe split blue to try.
Any suggestions?

Hes definitely showing a lot of blue on the back. It could well indicate that he is split to blue, the only way to tell would be pairing with a known split blue or a visual blue.
The pairing you mention would be a good one, if the hen is split to blue, you stand a chance of getting silvers, pastels, DF, SF yellows, even a blue, not to mention the normals and a percentage of these would be split blue!

Yes i am stumped on this one. Been told possible split blue as you said or ParBlue. But he is completely different to the Dilutes split Blue that i have. His back is nearly the colour of a Sea Green Parrotfinch.

Do you have a sister of his? If you don;t like the sound of this just stop reading. You could try putting him to a sister or half sister and see what comes of it. And obviously then outcross any resulting young.
