Rosy-faced lovebird eggs


what color can a green (male) And yellow (female) Rosy-faced lovebird babies be?


Answer:

Hi Hassan,

It is hard to say unless you know the entire background of the birds. Because there are so many mutations of the Peach faced lovebird, and many birds can be split to a mutation, meaning they don’t visibly show the mutation but it is in their genetics, this makes it very hard to predict what you will end up with. You can search for mutation charts or a mutation calculator for lovebirds. These are more commonly called Peach faced lovebirds so you will have better luck searching with that name. If your bird is all yellow except the face and some color on the tail, it is Lutino. If there is any green, it is Pied.

Thank you for asking Lafeber,
