The Pita Pinta Asturiana

[Ballerina Bird]

Also of interest -- this is what Asturias looks like! I really think we need a field trip. Maybe we can all stay with my friend.

Definitely need more of the birds. My small flock needs to produce this next spring

I know someone was working on it but may have hit snag. I got signed up with a breeders association in Spain so I might work that contact next year. After the first of the year I plan on getting mine going again. I was only able to hatch 5 Pitas this year with only one girl (and she is beautiful) Im down to my final 2 boys as possible keepers.

Molting but still pretty.
