There are many confusion about what are opaline peachface lovebirds. First of all, opaline lovebirds are peachface lovebird. The are exactly the same, but they are just a mutation of the peacface lovebirds. They are just basically a new color of the peachface lovebirds. And therefore, they can breed with the peachface lovebirds.

Just like the lutino peachface or the cinnamon peachface, the opaline peachface are a sex-linked genes. Therefore, breeding them is very similar if not the same as the lutino peachface and the cinnamon peachface.

What if we put a green red headed opaline male with a lutino peachface female? All the babies that are green opaline will be female green red headed opaline. All of the green peachface will be males, but they are split to opaline and split to lutino red headed opaline. Any colors you produce besides green means that the male and/or female are recessive to other colors.

When you breed green opaline to green opaline, you will always get green opaline because the green is dominate. Any colors you produce besides green is a sign that the male and/or female is recessive to other colors.

What if you put a green orangeheaded male opaline with a yellow cinnamon orangeheaded opaline? Well, you will always get green orangeheaded opaline. The green ones that are males will be split to cinnamon. The green females are just a green females. Any colors you produce besides green is a sign that the male and/or female is recessive to other colors.

If the male is split to cinnamon opaline, then the pairs can produce both cinnamon and green orange headed opaline. The green orange headed opaline babies that are males will be split to cinnamon and the green orange headed opaline are just normals. The orange headed cinnamon can be males or females.

What if we put a lutino peachface male with a green red headed opaline female? All the babies that are lutino peachface will be females. All the green peachface will be split to opaline and split red headed lutino opaline. Any colors you produce besides greens mean that the male and/or female are recessive to other colors.

You now have a slight idea of what the opalines are. They are a sex-linked gene. Because of that, they are same as the cinnamon and the "red-eye" peachface. Breeding them are very similar if not the same. If you understand how the cinnamon and the lutino works, the opaline are the same. Hopefully these illustration will give you some ideas of the opaline genetics.

What if the male is a the orange headed male opaline and the female is the green orange headed opaline? Well, you will produce orangeheaded yellow cinnamon females and the green orange headed opaline are males. Any colors you produce these colors means that the male and/or female orange headed opaline are recessive to other colors.
