Love Bird Fisher Fisher Birds The Fischer's lovebird has a green back, chest, and wings. Their necks are a golden yellow and as it progresses upward it becomes darker orange. The top of the head is olive green, and the beak is bright red. The upper surface of the tail has some purple or blue feathers . It has a white circle of bare skin (eye ring) around its eyes. Young birds are very similar to the adults, except for the fact that they are duller and the base of their mandible has brown markings. They are one of the smaller lovebirds, about 14 cm (5.5 in) in length and 43-58 gram weight. While most Fischer's lovebirds are green, several color variations have been bred. The blue variation is predominant; Lacking yellow, it has a bright blue back, tail, and chest, a white neck, a pale grey head and a pale pink beak. This mutation was first bred by R. Horsehair in South Africa in 1957, and two years later it was bred by Dr. F. Warlord in San Francisco. V There
