The Lutino sex-linked recessive mutation is a perfect example of a type of cockatiel that are the hardest to sex visually. Lutinos lack eumelanin pigment (enabling black, brown, grey colours and tones) and are consequently yellow to yellowish-white with orange cheek-patches.
The "albino" cockatiel also known as the whiteface lutino, is not the result of albinism. It is a breed that combines two genes of whiteface and lutino. The "Whiteface gene" removes all the yellow and orange that would be present in a Lutino, and the "Lutino gene" removes all the black and grey. So it has all white plumage, red eyes and pink ...
Cockatiel colour mutations can become even more complex as one bird can have multiple colour mutations. For example, a yellow lutino cockatiel may have pearling – white spots on its back and wings. This is a double mutation. An example of a quadruple mutation would be cinnamon cockatiel with yellowface colouring with pearling and pied ...
The "albino cockatiel" is not a true albino, it is a combination of a "white-faced cockatiel" and a "Lutino cockatiel". The "Whiteface gene" removes all the yellow and orange that would be present in a Lutino. and the "Lutino gene" removes all the black and grey. The result is an all white cockatiel with red eyes. [4]
Lutino is a bird that exhibits a yellow pigmentation known as xanthochromism. It may refer to: Lutino budgies; Lutino cockatiel mutation;
It all began with the normal grey cockatiel as the wild type colour, the mutations started with the captive home breeding, It took about 100 years for the first mutation [3] to evolve, from the first captive breeding of cockatiels which was in France in the 1850s till 1951 which known the Pied cockatiel mutation as first mutation colour to be established in the United States.
