LIZARD CANARY

The Lizard canary is a distinct mutation which, as recent experimental work has shown, behaves as recessive to the normal wild-type, self green canary.
All birds are dark-plumaged selfs, possesing the same basic pigments as the wild green canary and, save for the 'cap', which is an area of clear feathers on the crown of the head. There are many varieties of colors including gold, silver, blue, and red. The Lizard canary cap varieties: capped, non-capped, broken capped.
General description: the bird is 5 inches in length, neither over-stout nor too slim. It stands quitely and confidently on the perch at an angle
of 45 degrees.
