Albino Cockatiel\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Beautiful Albino Cockatiel Bird for Sale is not actually albino, and it’s\u00a0 been said that a better name for it\u00a0 would be White-Faced Lutino Cockatiel because it\u00a0 is a combination of a Lutino Cockatiel and a White-Faced Cockatiel. The Lutino has red eyes, white to pale yellow feathers, and orange patches on its cheeks and the White-Faced<\/a> Cockatiel is grey with a white or light gray face. Both the Lutino and the White-Face are mutations, which makes the Albino Cockatiel a dual mutation.<\/p>\n

History and Origin of\u00a0 Albino Cockatiel Bird\u00a0<\/span><\/a><\/h3>\n

There is not much information\u00a0 on how the Beautiful Albino Cockatiel Bird for Sale originated. The \u201cnormal grey\u201d Cockatiel has been bred for a variety of color mutations since the 1940s, and the Lutino was the second color mutation introduced in the United States. The White-Faced Cockatiel made its first appearance in 1964 and is a common mutation today.<\/p>\n

Cross breeding the White-Faced and Lutino together is what gives the Albino Cockatiel it\u2019s unique appearance. The Lutino gene removes the grey and black color of the White-Faced and adds the red eyes, and the White-Faced gene eliminates all of the orange and yellow coloring of the Lutino. In the end, you have an all-white bird with red eyes, which is not a true albino but has been given the name, nonetheless.<\/p>\n
