Wild callery pear rootstocks

That red skin over yellow looks like an ayers pear.
I’m 99.999999999% sure that is what is but there are pears that can resemble it somewhat in appearance. I’m actually 100% sure what that pear is but I give myself some room for varities I’ve never seen because they are out there. Here is the ayers pear and as you can see it’s unmistakably your pear Ayers pear! . They are ripe when the seeds are black and at that time they are melting and juicy. Literally they Drip with juice. I noticed the seeds appear white which is a tip off your early. Ayers will hang on the tree until ripe and beyond there is no hurry to pick ayers. The insects are detecting the high amounts of sugar. They are still weeks from ripe. When you tilt them up and they break off easily in your hand they are ripe. In addition when you push with your thumb against the neck of the pear it should have a slight give to it. The first pears are never the best pears and frequently it takes a couple years to master picking them at the right time. I’m very glad your getting pears!
