uh huh
I agree amazon.
Parrots werent being artif.colored until about 2-3 years ago, (typically)
Generally, parrots colors developed from the parents. It was kinda kewl cuz you could buy little black ones as babies, and watch them color up later as they grew, and dam near everyone turned out pylon orange.
Then, people start mass producing them, cuz they were a hit, and the genetics began to deteriorate. (Parrots were sterile, at the time, and I believe still are). Soon, the Bright Orange Parrots were coming in less and less orange, almost to a peachy color. It became a real treat when we actually got one that colored up bright orange. Its gotten a little better over the last year, but still, not what they used to be.
And yes, now they are dying them. Or the new technology, is DNA restructing, where we will soon, alter and enhance colors thru DNA. I still carry the blueberry tetras and strawberry tetras, but I let ppl know what they are about.
Painted glass, nope sorry. Just cant do it.
And lately Ive seen Oscars, and others as well. This is uncool.
I recently came across a new strain of Jack Dempsey that supposedly has a solid blue body, very brightly colored,incredible actually as Ive been told, that has had the aggression bred out of it. apparently these fellas can be kept in a community environment, ie tetras, angels, etc. Ha! I say. That is life on the edge. Put a JD in with your angels.
( The previous was sarcastic - please do not attempt.)
So ive ordered one. I wanna see it for myself.
