Dutch frill
I visited a local breeder the other day who was quite proud of his frill canaries. I've since done a bit of research, but from what I've seen they're almost always yellow. Is it generally frowned upon to introduce color variations?

They do come in other colours...

But you are right, that most of them tend to be yellow.
Personally I don't see the big hype about the Frills. They look like a normal Canary, that had been dragged through a hedge backwards in my opinion, lol.

Re: Dutch frill
These are the two females I picked up. It's almost like they're two ballerinas. The reason I ask about color, is typically type canaries are kept pure, and the Raza canary for example you want as close to the original color as possible. From what I was told, the feathering wouldn't transfer unless the cock had frill anyway, but I don't want to upset any purists by mixing them with a yellow agate for example.
