Hybrids. It would be the same as breeding a horse and a zebra together, or a lion and a tiger.
It is NO mutation. A mutation is an alteration of colors of the feathers and skin pigments within a single species. A hybrid is a mix of two separate species.
If you are to confuse a species with a mutation, then I urge you to separate the pair, do research on what is a species, what is a mutation, and what is a hybrid, as well as some of the possible problems when creating hybrids. That, and do more reading and research into breeding species. If you are financially stabled and can handle emergencies, and you have experience handraising, and you are interested in being a breeder and not a pet owner, then I would also suggest you to go out and buy a greencheek zon of the opposite sex of the one you have, as well as a yellow nape of the opposite sex you have... the pairing the SAME species together before allowing them to reproduce...
