Fallows

All the pictures shown on this pages are of fallows that we currently own and working with. A special thanks to Lisa Viteri. Without her, I would not have this beautiful mutation to work with. The type of fallows we have are also known as Pale Fallows or East German Fallows. We were able to produce 5 split fallow babies this year. They are all in the blue series. One day we hope to breed them back to the Green series as well.

How is the Fallow mutation different from the Ino or Australian Cinnamon mutations?

Fallows are autosomal recessive. This means that both parents must either be fallow or split to fallow to produce babies. Also what this means is that new, beautiful combinations can be created such as WF Fallow Opaline Violets!
Fallows have red eyes unlike Australian Cinnamons.
Fallows have an actual rump color like Australian Cinnamons, not like the light blue sheen that is seen sometimes on Inos.

Breeding Goals: Work to Re-establish the fallow mutation in the United States.

Whitefaced Double Violet Male Fallow x Whitefaced Violet Female Fallow Pair. The body colors of both WF fallows look very similar, but the double violet fallow has an extremely deep and purple rump that extends further up the body, whereas the single violet fallow has a lot less violet on its rump.
