A Genetics-First Alexandrine Breeding Program
AKQ Birds is a documented, genetics-first Asiatic Parakeet breeding program founded and run by Akbar Khan Qureshi. The focus is bloodline strength, mutation accuracy, structured pair planning, and long-term line discipline — built on years of practical animal breeding, field observation, and responsible aviculture.
The AKQ Alexandrine program is not built on mutation interest alone. It is an extension of earlier work in animal selection, genetic development, record keeping, and long-term breeding discipline.
Akbar Khan Qureshi
We don't chase mutations.
We build bloodlines that can carry them — with strength, consistency, and breeding value that holds up over time.
AKQ Birds picks birds for their bloodline first — structure, fertility, and how predictably they pass on their genetics — not just how they look. A nice visual on a weak foundation doesn't last past one or two generations.
Every pair has a documented genetic profile. Pairings are planned before any bird is placed, chick records trace back to the pair file, and no bird enters the program without a clear reason for being there.
Mutation Logic
Pairings are planned using inheritance logic, genetic splits, sex-linked traits, and long-term mutation goals — not visual selection alone.
Bloodline Strength
Selection is based on bloodline value, fertility, outcrossing strategy, and future breeding performance — not rare colour alone.
Physical Quality
Structure, head, body, feather, size, strength, and overall presence remain central to every breeding decision in the program.
Breeding Records
AKQ tracks pairing outcomes, clutch results, fertility, chick development, and future breeder value to support data-driven selection.
A Documented Progression
The AKQ approach began with livestock selection, record keeping, and genetic development before being applied to advanced Alexandrine breeding. Each milestone marks a step toward a structured, genetics-first breeding program.
Study of genetics, selective breeding, and dual-purpose livestock development begins.
Qureshi Farm develops into one of Rajasthan’s prominent livestock farms through structured selection and breeding discipline.
Efforts in livestock development are recognised by the Government of Rajasthan, India.
Restricted travel shifts focus toward birds, beginning with Lovebird fallows, Cockatiels, and early mutation observation.
Focused Alexandrine work begins, applying livestock-style selection principles to structure, mutation accuracy, and record keeping.
The first Blue-line Alexandrines are introduced and developed through possible split lines, strengthening the genetic base.
Dark Green and Grey Green Alexandrines are sourced to strengthen structure and support future dark-factor and Blue-series development.
Travelled internationally to five leading Alexandrine breeders to procure core foundation stock for the AKQ line, selecting birds for genetic strength, structure, mutation potential, and long-term breeding value.
Testing and evaluation of all breeding birds to avoid hybrid influence, confirm pure lineage, and establish verified pure stock for the AKQ breeding program.
Testing and evaluation of all breeding birds helped avoid hybrid influence and establish verified pure stock, while AKQ began public documentation through the Alexandrine Guide, genetics calculator, and structured program records.
The AKQ Alexandrine program is not built on mutation interest alone. It is an extension of earlier work in animal selection, genetic development, record keeping, and long-term breeding discipline.
