Southern Chondros

Repeat is in the works between Raven and Sunflower. Hands down my favorite pairing. This is an odd time for me to pair up but I tried the normal times and they said no thanks. So, here we are.

Sisters from 2021 Raven x Sunflower, high yellow x blue blood, still looking very promising. I have two males available from this pairing. See my other post for their details.

These two handsome, male subadults are ready to head off to a new abode. Both fabulous feeders and full of high yellow and blue blood. Their sisters are posted in a separate post. Lineage info available in the link below. Raven x Sunflower 2021

Considering taking the chondro plunge but don't want to pay extra for or worried about shipping? If you live along one of the routes I maybe driving in the next few weeks, we could meet up for a safe, personal delivery. I'm near Raleigh, NC and I may possibly be headed up near Dayton, OH. The two northerly routes through VA, WV, and OH are my most likely choices but I could be talked into going through KY instead which would put me close to TN, too. Take a look at what I've got available and reach out if you have any questions. https://southernchondros.com/available-yearlings-alt/

Finally got a decent updated photo of KB-21-01. She and her sister (photo coming next post) just didn't want to cooperate with their other siblings. Want some high yellow/melanistic/blue lineage blood in your collection? Her siblings are available now!

I just love the variety in this species and all within the same clutch! Amazing chondro color genetics. Yearlings available and ready to fly as soon as weather cooperates. https://southernchondros.com/available-yearlings-alt/

Yearlings (almost 19 months old) from Raven x Sunflower posted on my website now and at least one of my holdbacks will be posted soon as well. Waiting on fresh sheds and cooperation for some more updated photos from a few. High yellow x blue pairing and more info in link:

At least one holdback will be going and I'd consider letting go at least one other as well for the right offer: https://southernchondros.com/holdbacks/

I tend to spend more time on IG these days but I wanted to make sure all interested folks saw these beauties. They are a little over a year old now, sexed via probe (DNA sexing is up to a 2 month wait right now), and have been good feeders from the get-go. Honestly, one of the easiest clutches ever to get started. It's so hard to chose which ones to let go! I expect to have at least 4-5 available soon. More info on Raven x Sunflower on my website. Pics of adults included in this album.

Finally sick and tired of maintaining and replacing light fixtures in my adult cages and going to step into this century with new LEDs. I’m not at all knowledgeable about this sort of thing so research had taken me forever. For folks like me who love DIY, I’ll post a how-to once I get it all worked out in the first bank of cages.

Playing around with some new logo ideas. I've never tried to make line drawings in photo editing softward before and I'm pretty happy with my first attempt. I made one for a white background as well and may post that one tomorrow.

Who is protecting your eggs this Easter? No eggs in the incubator yet but will have a few of last year’s offspring available soon. Happy Easter!

Hello little one! This is a Raven x HY female, Sunflower, baby hatched just this morning. Interesting combo of high yellow, blue lineage and melanistic. I’m excited to have babies again! More details to follow as well as more photos of the rest of the clutch as they hatch.

Old man Rodney’s still got it going on!

09/22/2019

What is the oldest male you have ever successfully bred? Excuse the bad pics but Rodney, at almost 20 yrs old, still gets very upset when he can see you watching him with a female.

Fingers crossed for Rodney x Matilda 2019/2020 high yellow pairing. This may be their last time together so don’t miss out on a stellar high yellow producing power pairing. Details to follow on my website pairings page.

Rehomed!

Unique opportunity for someone into high yellows. Tough decision to move this sweet guy onto a new home but he needs to pass on stunning good looks for another lucky breeder. Popcorn is a proven high yellow male who is unique because he was a red baby. He is ready for a new female to court so PM me for his rehoming details.

His details: http://southernchondros.com/Collection/popcorn/

ID #: CGT-06-01 Sire: Splash, EB-98.82 Dam: Lucy, Unk Popcorn came to me as an adult from David Bellis but he was produced by CaliGreenTrees. What makes Popcorn unique is that he is a high yellow who was a maroon baby. He is the offspring of a Biak female, Lucy, with unknown lineage, and Splash, a be...

A busy summer season has come to an end in our household and it's time to start thinking about fall pairings. I'll be posting pairings in the coming weeks!

Getting our pedaling on this month!

Tomorrow, we ride...

Every mile we pedal, every hill we climb, every drop of sweat and every ounce of energy we have, will be to honor those little lives we’ve lost and to continue the fight for ALL kids living with cancer.

And although our legs may beg us to stop and our bodies grow weary, we'll think about what these brave kids are going through...and we'll pedal harder.

Because these kids don't give up, and neither will we.

Remember these faces as you start your challenge…and let’s ride together to KICK CANCER'S BUTT!

Who's with us?
