Be sure to use the scroll bar on the right to see more of the pages under that category. Within the data for each specific classification you will find the normal (wild) color listed first. Followed by other color mutations in aphabetical order The only exception to this is when a group of birds containing more than one color mutation is sold. That data is listed as a mixed mutation lot and is usually immediately after the normal color listing. Often a specific classification will be listed and there will be no data in the table. This is because there was once data but it has become over a year old and has been deleted. If you do not find the type of bird within the classification you expected, there are two possible reasond: (1) No birds of that type have been sold in Central Texas recently, and they are not listed in the data. (2) The bird is listed under another classification. If this the case the following list of General Classifications and Specific Classifications may help you find the data you need.
