Meet our two pairs that are Pamperedpeeps Pineapple Producing Pairs for 2008!!!!!!!
|
Our first beautiful pair
of Green Cheeks that are capable of producing Pineapples are Fuji and
Gala. Fuji is a Double Split Green Cheek and Gala is a
Pineapple Green Cheek. This is our beautiful
Gala. Because
Gala is a Pineapple and Fuji is a Double Split, their chances of
producing Pineapples babies are about 15% males and 15% females. Gala is
one of our babies from 2006, as is Fuji.
For those of you who breed, the Pineapple gene is sex linked. If you have a Pineapple cock, he will produce all Pineapple girl babies, no matter what color you pair him up with. Here is a chart to help you predict what your babies will turn out to be.

This proud little man is Fuji. He is a Double Split Green Cheek which means he is split to (or carrying) the Yellow Sided and Cinnamon genes. Even though he looks like a Normal Green Cheek, he is able to pass on those genes and since his mate is a Pineapple, he is able to create Pineapples.

| Gala loves riding horses, just like her mother(s). We used to call Gala our "crop-duster" because she would zoom around our kitchen, dive bombing us!!! Since then, she has moved to the aviary, but we still love her. |

"I can't believe we ate the WHOLE THING!" (Gala is on the right when she was newly weaned) |
AND FINALLY, OUR BEAUTIFUL REDNECK PAIR: Mr. Wuzzy and Mrs. Fuzzy! There is a little story behind the names. We raised Fuzzy when she was hatched below our pair named Gary and Della. Wuzzy is a true "Texas Redneck" from www.hatchingpost.com . When Green Cheeks are about 4 weeks old, they are always fluffed up, begging...and very Fuzzy-looking. As Fuzzy went through that stage, we nicknamed her Fuzzy and the name stuck.

Doesn't she look just plain...Fuzzy? And, of course, her husband just HAD to be Wuzzy. |
Wuzzy meet Fuzzy!
