Genetic Carrier Test for Plum-headed Parakeet
🧬 A genetic test designed to detect hidden color mutations in Plum-headed Parakeets (Psittacula cyanocephala), with a focus on blue and lutino mutations.
This test is especially important for breeders who wish to identify color traits that may not be externally visible but can be passed on to offspring.
Species: Plum-headed Parakeet (Psittacula cyanocephala)
Detectable Mutations: Blue and Lutino
Purpose: Identify genetic carriers of color mutations to support informed breeding
Sample Type: Feather or blood
Processing Time: 10–14 business days
Note: Even birds that do not visibly show these color traits can carry them genetically. This test helps breeders pair birds correctly for desired outcomes.
