Phenomenal looking bird, and I'm not a mutation lover either.
I imagine a small house could be bought for the same price as that one hen...

It looks strange to me , like its heads too big and its body is a bit small but they say it is normal sized .
Accept that some days you are the pigeon, and some days you are the statue.

Different, but not really as appealing as the original. And I have nothing against mutations. Not into the bigger birds either. Think I'd just go buy me the block over the back and more finches in preference.

Not silly at all, wouldnt be suprised if they made more than that, some of the rare macaws here nearly fetch that price already.AMCA26 wrote:Different. What would you say mayb $30k or $40k plus or am i being silly.
