Breeding American Songbirds Hard cover book, beautifully
illustrated with more then 250 photographs of the most beautiful Carduelan
finch species of the Americas. Most of those birds were bred by the author
himself (Rob
van den Hulst) and he writes from his own experience. For those who are
trying to branch into the upper-middle level of Finch breeding (Carduelan
species) this is one
of those books "must have", if anything just for reference. Rob
van den Hulst in this book is describing the requirements for breeding of:
four species of Cardinals, seven species of Grosbeaks, including the very beautiful
Yellow Grosbeak and the larger finches, the whole of the 19 cm (8
inch) the Black-backed Grosbeak, five of the most colorful species of
Buntings including the Indigo and the Painted Bunting and five species of
Siskins including the Lawrence's and the American Goldfinches.
Fringillidi
Speciali This new book by Dr. Baseggio is
a wealth of knowledge about genetics and how to choose and pair up birds to
produce various mutations, it's just the book for those who are into
Carduelan specie mutations. Read about his new technique on how to reproduce
Carduelan species in captivity and here he is sharing it with the rest of
us. I have been breeding Carduelan species continuously for about 25 years,
I know almost everyone in the word who bred or breeds Carduelan Species,
over the years I have seen breeders come and go, to be honest cannot name to
many who were in the hobby when I started but I know for certain that Dr
Baseggio has been breeding them much longer than most of us. For those who believed
that a black Canary could not be produced, Dr. Baseggio has already produced
several generations, congratulations! Let's wait another couple of
years, did anyone say blue Canaries cannot be produced?
