Olive Rainbow or Grey Green Rainbow Lorikeet.

This colour is not to be confused with the what we call True Olive Rainbow which is a Double factor Dominant bird.

This mutation is of a Single Dominant factor gene patent.

The Dominant gene for the Grey Green/Olive.

This gene is fairly simple: When bred to a normal it either shows the colour up or it doesn't.

That means, any bird that doesn't show this colour gene, will not carry it in it.

So this bird bred to a Normal shows either the colour or not and there are no splits involved.

Breeding results can vary but will go close to:

Grey Green X Normal = 50% Grey Green + 50% Normal and is not split for the colour.
