Hello everyone! I am a parrot old Li, usually like to raise some birds by myself, basically all the parrots you can see on the market have been raised!
Usually share with you some parrot feeding tips! If you like it, you can add a attention to support me!
How did you train your parrots last time? Only three steps to get the parrot on hand, the parrot recognizes you as the master
This time, let's talk about the classification of budgeons!
There are many breeds of tiger parrots, which are mainly distinguished by the color of the body feathers, and can generally be divided into the following types:
1. Primitive species, the most common and common breed of tiger parrot.
Three color groups: green, blue, gray (gray is not common)
The most primitive colors are these three, and the rest are artificially bred in the later stages
Raw green
Primal blue
2. Opal species
Opal species [pattern variation]: The main difference between opal species and primitive species is the spotted feathers on the back, that is, the color on the tip of the feather is the same as the color on his stomach. For example, the ordinary original green feather tip is yellow, the stomach is green, different, so it is ordinary, and the original green belly color cannot be changed, so when the color of his feather tip is also green, it is called opal primitive green. Let's take another one: the sky blue belly is blue, the tip of the feather is white, different, it is an ordinary breed, if the tip of his feather also turns blue, it is opal.
Note: Feather tip refers to the feathers on the back of the back and on the wings.
Features: There is an inverted triangle of solid color area on the back, and the end of each wing feather appears the same color as the body color, that is, the opal species

Third, the large head species is also called mushroom head. This process is both a process of improvement and a process of degradation. After nearly 30 years of reproduction and evolution, China has formed its own unique system of large heads, called national blood.
European blood, Taiwan blood, national blood, China currently exists in the most common three kinds of big-headed tiger skin parrot system, strictly speaking, are big-headed tiger skin.

5. Yellow-faced species:
Green (bright green, dark green, dark green, gray green, yellow...) The face is yellow,
Blue (sky blue, navy, violet, dark green, light purple, gray, white...) The face is white.
When the blue white face is replaced by the yellow face. This type of bird is called a yellow-faced species [blue bird with a blue body and a yellow face]

The dorsal markings resemble fish scales and are interchanged with the position of the black and white patches of the original species. Features: The edges of each feather are black, and the rest of the feathers are solid colors, corresponding to the color system.
VIII. Grey-winged Species:
Gray wings refer to the change of pattern from black to gray; bright wings refer to the color of the wings from dark colors based on black to light colors) This is all from the wings.
In general, the gray wing pattern is faded from the original black to gray, and the blue green on the body is faded to light green and light blue. Features: Compared to the original species, the places of the black symbols on the body are faded to gray.
