soCal
I'm sure its been discussed, but today I went to one of, what I believe is a great fish store in so cal, and they had some interesting crossbred parrots. I snapped a few pictures with the phone, but I think my brother ended up going later and purchasing one. So I'll get some pictures of his, and maybe snap some pics tomm, since I have to head down there again anyway. They had some Green Terrors x Parrot, and what looked like a Flowerhorn/Trimac x Parrot. VERY nice coloring on the flowerhorn/trimac one. I might go get myself one. Anyone on here have any of those? DasArab?
 
They are getting quite common Search "banzai parrot" Or even f.h x parrot. It has been in threads here infinity times. The G.T x parrot I have never seen and hitting the subscribe button now.....
 
Yeah it looks just like a shortbodied GT, since the mouth really doesn't look like that of a severum/parrot. They are cool lookin', wonder how their temperament is? Anyone who has these feel free to chime in. . .
:popcorn:
 
my LFS had a GT that looked like a full blood parrot... Basically a BP with GT coloring...


It made me wanna vomit, why I harbor so much hate for BP is beyond me... But yuck.. lol
 
The short-bodied GT's aren't a hybrid. Just fish that should have been culled. Temperment is the same as a Gold Saum. As that's what they are.

I've also read that heavy metals added while the egg is developing causes spinal deformities, but I don't know if it's true or not.

I wish I took a picture of the one at my LFS it WAS a GT/BP hybrid. Ugliest thing i've ever seen.

I think you meant "Bonsai Parrots".
