TG, there you are. I couldn't figure out what it was I said wrong, them blam there is was I said splash and not light blue.
Good thing you're around Suze. I get the premise. But don't make me talk about genetics because I'll fall flat on my face every time.
I know why they did it, the color...
Kathy its is possible if their birds had a lavender gene parent, then they will carry a single gene of the lavender parent and one gene of the non lavender parent. But you have to "know" that the parent was a lavender. I've been following the explanations closely for lavenders since I have them...
Lavender is lavender but after they are accepted in to the ABA they will more than likely be designated as self blue.
A light blue bird is just that light blue or a very washed out splash. There is a distinct difference between a lavender bird and a light blue or washed out splash.
