Tony, I see the color "mercury" list in some of the pedigrees.
What color is mercury, does anyone have a example of this color?

Hi Tony, thanks for posting the pedigree on the Ruby's now that I have this information I at least have more light on where my Ruby's blood came from.
Thanks again

Tony... I was just wondering can you send copies of those pedigrees enclosed inside of a 9x11 plastic sheet with an order of young rubies?

Thanks Tony
I find it interesting how roller families are put together...noting that it is most important what the breeder does with the birds at his own loft.
Your birds seem small and compact... what line do you think contributes to this trait in your birds?
Your color pattern in your birds seem to not vary much have you really bottlenecked your breeding to a few select birds or have maintained that larger gene pool from the original families?
Looking at the pictures in your gallery your birds have a nice typy look to them that seems constaint..I have not been around any of your birds in person to handle them but from the pictures you have posted I like what I see.
