Anthracite were first established in Germany. I have not read about a British breeder who breeds Anthracite budgies.

Don't know where you can find them, but I agree...I think anthracites are stunning. Hope someone on the forum can help.

I'm breeding some Single Factor Anthracites at the moment. You can see one of them (pair 2) in the Genetics & Colours topic and then in the thread I started called Test your skills of prediction..!

Dad is stunning Leon Did you ever breed him with an Anthracite hen? No, he was paired with a Slate hen and only produced the 2 hens I've got paired now.

Thankyou all for your replies and comments. nigelsstud what makes you think that this Ghalib would want to sell me an Anthracite he may breed them but doesn't mean he will sell me one?
