Half-siders are certainly unique!

Funny... there's been a lot of talk about this on-line as of late!

Here is another link that you might be interested in: Photo Sharing by MyPhotoAlbum.com :: African Love Bird Society Picture Library :: Halfsiders

I hope that you enjoy :) The ALBS has a great gallery for reference.

You've always gone out of your way to share interesting photos of lovebirds.

What I wouldn't do for one of those albino or lutino Fischer's

The problem is that a lot of half siders are infertile, and anyway its modification not a mutation so no chance to inhere it.

Eliza this little dilute light blue fischer has a Mother the same and a lutino Father, I've breed the parents many times but this is the only one that shows yellow. I've been told it could have been caused by Kindey or Liver problems? or a lack of Vitiam A but this little bird is as healthy as they come. Be interesting to see how or if he breeds.

Well i have a personal experience with Roseicollis some green males which are splits to INO get some yellow feathers in there bodies sometimes on wings sometimes near feet( i am not talking here about Pied at all) but about your bird i don't think its the same so maybe its a mutation, test breeding is a must in similar situation, ask ALLAH to help you, and keep us up to date with news .

Thumbs up

Look what I picked up at a local bird shop, can you believe it. I had to look twice when I saw her sitting on the perch, "how much for the unusual Fischer?" I said.
"$38" she replied.
"I'LL TAKE IT!!!!!"
