Thanks for the info. It's appreciated.

PS - we're the curators of Mother Nature's info. People have known genetics info for a very, very long time. We've all been taught and benefited by someone olders experiences and collection of data. This includes the writers. I do hope that those that choose to publish make a couple of dollars. I do know that those that choose to publish aren't getting rich quick. It'll take them a long time to get their money back after purchasing a press run. Everyone does a pretty good job on this website, giving credit, where credit is due.

A program I use for my canary breeding is AviMate which can be found on the American Federation of Aviculture website (if you're not a member, I highly suggest you join. Don't need to be a member to buy the program though). It's a a wonderful program and as with any software it helps keep things organization, it'll print off reports and invoices for bird sales etc.

I enjoy how neat things are filed and compiled for records keeping etc. It was designed more in mind for parrot breeders so if you pair a cock bird with two females you will need to put the cock bird in twice so the program allows a double entry.
