charlie666 Posted June 24, 2007 Share Posted June 24, 2007 hi i have just noticed that there is no one else on this forum with a A,G. with so much red feathers on its body like that of charlies, or is there? when we purchased charlie the breeder told us that he has a lot more red on him than most A,Gs and that it will be possible that it will probably molt out on his first molt well he has had his first molt and he still has lots of red on him, is this rare? i will try to attach an image to this post but if not you can see him (or her) in the photo album or on my page.

CeasarsDad Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 Good question charlie.. I wondered that myself.. i am sure there must be as we have over 1700 members.. but I haven't heard much talk about it since I have been here.. This thread might help us discover these other "red factor greys" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
judygram Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 I have seen photos of other red factor greys but not with the amount of red that yours has charlie666. He is a gorgeous bird, you lucky man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Lidia Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 Charlie is lovely, how old is he now? It will be very interesting to see if he maintains his red feathers when he is a little older. I hope he does, he looks gorgeous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MabesM Posted October 14, 2007 Share Posted October 14, 2007 Hello there! I am the lucky owner of 2 wild caught(relax, I rescued them from a bad situation!) african greys... they are approximately 25 years old and have the RED FACTOR gene...They have beautiful 3-4 layer rings around their necks... and some feathering on the wings and legs... They have been with me for a few months now and are doing very well... the male, George is getting his head feathers back... they have never been handled so i think i will leave that aspect alone... however they are taking food from me now... they never did that before. I made a post on the color mutations topic... photos to come... B) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
