Many Colors On the bottom of the swing, from right to left, is Dolly (variegated green), and Mrs Bits, (variegated yellow, named after her grandmother). Pansy is in the lower middle, almost hidden at the back. On top is Ruby, an intensive red lipochrome. This is the colour often known as 'Red Factor' - which is both right and wrong. This colour is one of the colours that a bird with the right genetics can show, true - but it is only one of many very different colours. Such a canary HAS the 'red factor', rather than being it, and it may not necessarily look like Ruby, either - some will, but many will not.
