Hybrid Goldfinch Or Hazelnut, Its Characteristics And Forms

Before we answer these questions, it is advisable to provide an overview of what this hybridization process is? Crossbreeding, as I mentioned in a previous topic about  the types of goldfinch hybrids,  is the mating between two sexes that are not of the same type .

As far as we are concerned here, we will focus on the crossbreeding between the goldfinch and the canary, as each bird belongs to a different type from the other, and because the process of crossbreeding between these two types  is easy and easy compared to the crossbreeding of the goldfinch with other types of songbirds,  because these types of birds are rarely found in the market so that they are produced in cages. Actually  , this is a necessary condition to facilitate the process of crossbreeding between the goldfinch and any other type of bird.  For this reason, most breeders resort to crossbreeding between the goldfinch and the canary.  This type of crossbreeding is mostly between a male  goldfinch  and a female canary,  and I have never been aware of the opposite crossbreeding, such as the male being a canary. And the female goldfinch.  It is also worth noting that the name of the bird that we get from this mating between the goldfinch and the canary differs from one country to another. Among its most famous names, we find Al-Bunduk, the bastard, and the maestro or the misto.

So who is this hybrid bird and what are its forms and features?

As mentioned, the bunduq fritters or the goldfinch hybrid is the result of mating between the male goldfinch and the female canary.  This bird, like the rest of the hybrid species of animals, is considered barren and unable to reproduce,  although it does not differ from all living creatures in terms of sexual instinct,  and in this it resembles the rest of the songbirds, so that we find it in The mating season is in a state of frenzy and continuous tweeting,  spreading the wings when tweeting, and has a willingness to mate with a female canary, but the process does not produce any fruits, as I mentioned.  One of the advantages of the hybrid bird or the hazelnut is its natural combination between the features of the goldfinch on the one hand, which is the sweetness of the voice  and the diversity of the songs it performs as We find some of the goldfinch’s colors reflected on the hazelnut in its external form.

On the other hand, we find that the hazelnut has the strength of the reverent voice that distinguishes the canary bird and its length in performing the songs,  and this is what the goldfinch does not possess. We also find that the hazelnut  takes its physical strength from the canary, so its size is equivalent to the size of the canary and slightly larger than the size of the goldfinch  . It seems that this goldfinch hybrid takes for itself Of both types, i.e. the goldfinch and the canary, the best they have,  but these characteristics remain exclusive to the male hazel grouse in terms of the ability to sing and its diversity,  unlike the female, which does not have the capabilities of the male, as she is like the rest of the goldfinch and the  canary. The losing party in the crossbreeding process does not pay attention to it except rarely when a breeder wants to  use it to incubate eggs for other birds, as it performs this process excellently.Here are some clips from the video of the grouse singing beautifully, so that you can get to know the amazing capabilities of this bird

Pictures of some goldfinch hybrid forms:

The goldfinch’s hybrid form, as previously mentioned, combines the shape of a large canary, the shape of its rounded beak, and the colors of its feathers, in which the colors of the feathers of the male goldfinch mix with the color of the female that mated and produced with it

In the end, this was just an introduction to the next topic, which is the method of producing a goldfinch hybrid.  We will divide this topic into two parts  , so that we devote the first section to talking about a female canary.  How do we choose a good female canary and how do we prepare it for the mating season? And the second part will be about the necessary practical steps  that we should follow for the success of this hybridization or mating between a  male goldfinch  and a female canary
