Anyone else got a turquoise green cheek with a funky tail feather color ?

Little guy now that has left feathers alone seems to have blue tipped and red bands on its tail which I found interesting

He's probably not a pure turquoise GCC, he's probably half normal, pineapple, or suncheek GCC.

Potentially, also has a single violet gene so colors are a bit odd to begin with

Yup, wouldn't be suprised if he had other mutations in there!

Also little deceptive bird haha.

The one breeder I'm talking to has definitely agreed on the violet gene as that seems to be a solid from the person I got the bird from.

Yeah, he's so cool!

Definitely! Lmao I was told if I ever wanted to rehome him, he has a place and potentially be part of someone's breeding program, personality wise extremely and I mean extremely friendly and handable. Has yet to not want to be hanging out with someone

I feel betrayed as anyone else in the house rather go see them then stay with me lmao but Im at least happy he likes everyone.

such thing doesn't exist. I'd say this version of turquoise mutation reduce red color less than normally (I dunno but "half-turquoise" doesn't exist - it exists only in species where blue mutation is bred and there are no blue GCC's)

I'd agree with that

 

[StormyPica]

Welp, I don't know much about conure color genes so it was just a guess. That would be very cool though.

 

[Alfie]

I'd agree with that

No doubt on it. Very vibrant birdy haha
