5 facts about Agapornis Australian Yellow Face/Orange Face Fischeri

Australian Yellow Face or Orange Face Fischer must be officially listed on the mutation table. Evidently, in the mutation table published by Ornito Genetics, there is still a question mark in the Australian Yellow Face / Orange Face Fischeri column.

Just to remind you, so that color variants can be accepted and recognized as new mutations, specific criteria must be adhered to:

- Color variations should be clearly distorted and distinguishable from the wild types. It should also be clearly deviant and distinguishable from existing and recognized mutations. 

- Color variations should be maintained until the bird becomes an adult. 

- The characteristics of the same color should always be inherited by the offspring of the variant. 

- Inheritance mode must be identified. Sometimes meeting these criteria is more challenging than it may appear at first glance. So there must be a breeding test.

I think the Australian Yellow Face/ Orange Face has fully occurred and practiced for the above criteria.

But this certainly will not reduce the enthusiasm of aviculture to make purchases and breeding tests on the Australian Yellow Face / Orange Face Fischeri.

Some aviculture continue to work behind the scenes in reporting breeding tests and may arrive at the delivery of fur samples for research by Ornito Genetics.

This will be very helpful for advancing Ornito's Genetic research on the Australian Yellow Face / Orange Face Fischeri. It gets to the point where,     at the end of the conclusion, publish it.

Background and facts of the Australian Yellow Face lovebirds

At the beginning of the emergence of this type, many versions of the name Indonesian Yellow Face,

Australian Yellow Face, Orange Face, and some journals even indicate Pale_headed.

This may still be PPR (Partial Psittacine reduction) based on phenotype vision on the Australian Yellow Face/Orange Face Fischeri.

This may still be PPR (Partial Psittacine reduction). Where the reduction only occurs in red Psittacine.

This is evident in the Australian Yellow Face/Orange Face Fischeri phenotype, where masks that should be reddish-orange are sometimes reduced to yellow or orange.

The reduction also occurs in the beak, which should be red and yellow after mutating into Australian Yellow Face / Orange Face Fischeri.

In the part of the body, hair does not degrade because basically, in this part, there is no red psittacine or very minimal.

Also, based on several reference journals, only Melanin, Yellow Psittacine, and Structural blue dominate the fur of body parts.

So that the body hair of the Australian Yellow Face / Orange Face Fischeri will remain colored like a wild type / Green Series.

The same thing also happens when there is a dark factor, a violet factor, and a combination with pastel or NSLino.

Australian Yellow Face/Orange Face Fischeri's body hair will still show in Dark Green, Green SF Violet, and Pastel Green.

Yellow Face is Available in Indonesia and Australia

Australian Yellow Face

Until this article was published, Australian Yellow Face / Orange Face Fischeri was observed to be only available in Indonesia and Australia.

It can be seen from the social media posts of their local group.

There may also be other worlds. You can contribute to the comments column below.

Recently,     Agapornis breeders from the Philippines have also started bringing Australian Yellow Face/Orange Face Fischeri to their aviaries.

Yellow Face born with yellow down feather.

Chicks on Agapornis already have different feathers after they hatch.

Reddish orange plumage color for wild types and green series, and white plumage for blue and white descending series also occurs in blue1blue2.

Meanwhile, Australian Yellow Face / Orange Face Fischeri showed a yellow color for their first fur.

You can see the difference in the images I include.

Yellowface occurs only in Green Series Agapornis

Differences between green opaline and yellow Face opaline

As we already know, in Australian Yellow Face/Orange Face, Fischeri works by reducing red Psittacine in feathers. This will certainly see the effect only on the green series.

While in the blue series or CPR (Complete Psittacine Reduction), red Psittacine and yellow Psittacine have been reduced completely, so the mutation effect of Yellow Face or Orange Face may not be seen in the blue series.

It is the same as that experienced in albinos. Ultimately, we can only see the white phenotype, not the combination with other mutations.

Many cases of albino x albino couples produce edge chicks, pied, and others.

Australian Yellow Face/Orange Face, Fischeri in the blue series,     is likely also a genotype still carrying the Orange Face / Yellow Face gene, only they have blue phenotypes.

In the future, when crossing with the Green Series, chicks will inherit the Orange Face / Yellow Face Phenotype from the blue.

What is still possible is the combination of Australian Yellow Face Fischeri with PPR mutations (Partial Psittacine Reduction) such as Blue1blue2 and Aqua Fischer.

Yellowface is Autosomal Recessive

Until this article was published, MOI (Mode Of Inheritance) of the Yellow Face or Orange Face variant was recessive. This refers to several sources.

So,     we must have two gene factors to get F1 with Fischeri's Australian Yellow Face phenotype. When we work with split birds, both parents should bring a Yellow Face gene career.

It resembles the MOI Agapornis Orange Face in the Roseicollis or Peachfaced species.

While Pale_headed MOI showed that they are Autosomal Incomplete Dominant

Yellowface's price is fantastic.

In Agapornis, hobbies such as being commonplace, the price will be high when one variant is still rare and the latest.

Everyone in the Agapornis hobby certainly wants to have and multiply immediately. Both for research and business purposes.

Just a note from the Mutabase database: I included the table below that they are available in parts of Oceania, including Australia.

Here I show you a database of mutabase about the details of the Australian Yellow Face with the code "of " *orange Face. Status is rare and available in Oceania/Australia.

How the story of the Australian Yellow Face or Orange Face continues in the future will be very interesting to look forward to.

It has been a combination of the orange face / yellow Face mutations until now.
