Dominant Edged is a rare mutation in Alexandrine Parakeets that results in the presence of yellow-scalloped feathers on the wings, as well as slightly lighter yellow flight and tail feathers. The variety is very similar to Sex-linked Dominant Edged in Rose-ringed Parakeets, but apparently is completely pure. Given its dominant mode of inheritance, Dominant Edged
Advertised as a pure Goffin’s Cockatoo, the pictured bird is certainly a Goffin’s and Long-billed Corella hybrid given its uniform white color, red lore, long whitish bill, partially droopy eyes, and scattered red feathers on its cheeks. Its crest appears somewhat smaller than that of a Goffin’s. Other hybrids of this kind may also have
Dusky-headed x Nanday Conures are uncommon conure hybrids that are often labeled as Nansun or pure Nanday Conures due to their odd appearance. Their plumage is green with a dark rusty-brown face, a completely black bill, a light blue patch on their breast, and dark blue primary flight & tail feathers. Some birds may also
While the pictured bird may look pure at first glance, small quirks about the plumage on its wings and mantle bring up the question of hybridization. Pure male Australian King Parrots have green mantles and thin aqua wing streaks, pure male Moluccan King Parrots have blue or half-blue half-green mantles and no wing streaks, and
Bronze-winged x White-crowned Pionus are very rare hybrids that have likely only been bred a handful of times. As juveniles, they are greenish with patches of navy blue on their head and breast, a small, scattered white crown, bronze-colored wings, azure-blue flight feathers, a red vent, and a yellow bill. As the bird matures, it
A rare hybrid, the pictured bird may be one of the only members of her kind to exist. She is nearly identical to a pure Red-collared Lorikeet visually, but has slightly more striping on her thighs, a yellow-orange breast (tending towards orange), and a greener mantle. However, given how closely-related all three species are to
Crosses between Yellow-crowned and Yellow-headed Amazons are rarely identified but likely somewhat common due to how similar the two species look, as well as how easily they can be found in captivity. Although the pictured bird is a nestling, it seems to have green plumage with a strong yellow crown and scattered yellow feathers across
Blue-fronted x Yellow-shouldered Amazon crosses are rare in captivity, partially because of how uncommon the Yellow-shouldered species is. They are similar to both of their parents in appearance, but have a mixed gray and pink bill and slightly less defined yellow feathering on the face and shoulders by comparison.
Citron-crested x Moluccan Cockatoos are rare hybrids that are about the size of a Sulphur-crested Cockatoo. They are visually similar to Moltri crosses, but would generally be smaller in size and with stronger orange crest feathers and very faded yellow-orange ears. Apparently the first to mix the two species, Shaikh Tanveer showed interest in naming
