Classic Melanics colour canaries in the 21st century

BILINGUAL EDITION SPANISH-ENGLISH

​

This is the second volume of the collection CANARIOS DE COLOR EN EL SIGLO XXI, which focuses on the coloured canaries of our times, illustrated, as usual, with abundant examples of the Black, Brown, Agate and Isabel types that the author has been photographing in the best shows and aviaries. In the first volume, LIPOCROMOS, we analysed the lipochromic canaries and in the next ones that will follow shortly we will study all the mutated melanic canaries called New Colours.

This volume approaches everything related to selection, management in breeding, preparation for competitions and all the essential features of each of the CLASSIC MELANICS, always from the perspective of the top level of sporting ornithology. There are many tips and reflections that will delight both novice and expert fanciers, as well as an extraordinary collection of wonderful photographs that, by themselves, justify the publication of this work.

It also includes the official OMJ-COM Standard for each type and a very complete series of crossbreeding tables that are very useful for all fanciers and very easy to understand due to their visual nature.

The author is an Expert International Judge of Coloured Canaries of the OMJ since 1984 and has judged numerous competitions all over the world, including international and world championships.

He has published MI MIRADA, his first book on coloured canaries, ESTRILDIDOS AUSTRALIANOS, OCEANICOS Y ASIÁTICOS, EL JILGUERO Y SUS MUTACIONES and, recently, LIPOCROMOS (the last two in two bilingual editions Spanish-English and French-Italian), all of them with great editorial success.
