Beautiful German Pansy and Pansy Fee Coturnix hatching eggs from our own dedicated breeding flock in Carmarthenshire, Wales.
Our birds are housed in a separate breeding group consisting exclusively of Pansy and Pansy Fee Coturnix, with no other colour varieties introduced.
Genetics & Breeding
Our breeding flock originates from a specialised Pansy genetic line incorporating the recessive Pansy pattern mutation and Fee dilution genetics.
Pansy Genetics
Pansy is an autosomal recessive colour mutation responsible for distinctive feather patterning. Birds carrying two copies express the Pansy phenotype.
Fee Dilution Genetics - Fee is a colour-modifying mutation that influences feather pigmentation and the expression of warmer tones.
Depending on the inherited Fee combination, offspring may display:
Traditional Pansy colouration without Fee dilution. Pansy with single-copy Fee dilution. Pansy with double-copy Fee dilution, often displaying cooler grey, silver, black and white tones.
