My Parrots are Parents! :D

Well since the eggs are white now I will say it. Basically finding a fertile male is like winning the lotto, as much as you may want it to happen it wont. I have never seen a fertile male ever and I have looked. Anytime you here of one its either a wrongly identified fish or its someone else's story from a friend with no proof.

Yup

I pretty much already knew that.
Its like, 99% are infertile? Something like that.
I just think the whole process is really cool, but its a shame they can't have fry.

Do you happen to know what goes into creating kirin parrots?
I know its flowerhorn x parrot, but I'm sure there's more to it then just that.
 
Essentially 100% or 99.999999999999999999%

I would say breed Flowerhorn x BP and find any male that look Parrot like (F1) and breed it back to Parrot. Then breed a F2 male with to F2 female. Not exact but how I would do it.
 
I wanna say that I've owned a FERTILE MALE parrot in the past. I gain nothing from telling a lie.. I had so much fish and he wasn't my favorite looker so I gave him away because no one would buy him.. Made wigglers in my friends tank with another parrot. So ....

Here's my old ad. I was trying to hook somebody up but no one appreciated it.. He's the middle pic.

That is awesome.. Well at least you have a female that lays eggs! half the equation!!!.... try adding another species that will fertilize next time she drops eggs....Get a male flowerhorn, red devil or something. You would have a great chance of having grandfry that way. GOOD luck!

I'd really like to, but I don't have room for more tanks and Pinkie is my favorite so I don't feel comfortable giving him away. ):
