  1. 📢 Cockatiel Talk 🗣️
    Hey, I was wondering what type of chicks I would get from my male Lutino cockatiel and a cinnamon pied female, I've been having trouble understanding cockatiel genetics, so can I get an idea on what the chicks could be?
  2. Cockatiel Mutations and Genetics
    Hey! I'm extremely new to this site so bear with me haha. I have a confirmed female cockatiel, a little older than a year. She has this pearling under her wings. Note that the entire underside of the wings (minus primary and secondary flight feathers) is covered in pearling. Does this mean she...

    He is my first cockatiel and I don't want to sound like an idiot when people ask 😂
  4. Cockatiel Mutations and Genetics
    Hi, first time posting here. We got our two lovely tiels, Snow and Jaina, a year ago at around 3 months old. They are a little over a year old now, and have gone through their first molt. I was wondering if they might be split to any mutations, as I've heard that a pure normal grey tiel is...
  5. Cockatiel Mutations and Genetics
    I was just wondering if anyone could tell me the genetics of my birds based on offspring, such as what recessive genetics the parents may and also identify any in the babies as I am no good at it. I know that the dad is pearl already (split or visual I couldn't say), the mother is a WF cinnamon...

  8. Cockatiel Mutations and Genetics
    Hi! I have a couple of tiels that just started nesting for their second time. The female is a WF Pearl and the male seemed like a Clear Pied at first because I can't see red in his eyes no matter how close I look or even if I direct some light at it. However, out of the 4 babies that were born...
  9. Cockatiel Breeding
    I'm getting 2 four week old cockatiels on Monday. The breeder told me they're both female, but I don't think she had them DNA sexed, so I'm not sure. As far as I can tell, both parents are split pied, the mama is cinnamon and the dad is a normal grey split lutino. I know he's split lutino...

    What would you call this pretty girl?? My first guess is Cinnamon Pied. She is 2 years old.
  11. Cockatiel Mutations and Genetics
    Hello all! I am searching for a whitefaced cockatiel, and this is one I located near me. Any ideas if she is simply a whitefaced pied, or something else? Thanks for your input!!
  12. Cockatiel Mutations and Genetics
    I was told he was a pearl as a baby. But now he looks like a normal grey with some pearly. Ide love to know from some experts! I have included two pictures, one where he is a bit damp is from today. And the one where he is on a play stand is from Christmas two years ago. He was about 5 months...

    if you could create any sort of cockatiel mutation, what would it be? i was playing around in photoshop and quickly came up with these. rather un-natural, but quite striking (in my opinion!)
  14. Cockatiel Mutations and Genetics
    So I've always known I've loved lutinos and known that's what I wanted. I was looking up about lutinos and never knew you could have so many different mutations. But I was wondering if Skye was just a plain lutino or a lutino pearl or lutino whatever (I know males usually loose the pearl after...
  15. Cockatiel Mutations and Genetics
    I have a female lutino and a normal grey male. They had three babies, two grey males and one cinnamon female. So i'm wondering if this means the father is split to cinnamon and if the grey babies are split lutino? What about the cinnamon female? Do we know anything about the mother? I heard that...
  16. 📢 Cockatiel Talk 🗣️
    I was reading an article about wild parrots learning to speak new words from parrots who were previously pets, escaped in the wild and joined a flock. This made me think of other possible consequences, like breeding. So I was wondering: will escaped ex-pet cockatiels in Australia, if they are...
  17. 📢 Cockatiel Talk 🗣️
    Hey everyone, long time since I posted here. After my parents visited me and Ludwig, they got a tiel of their own! Could anyone help me (and my parents) with his/her mutation? The photo is a bit dark, and doesn't show the little specks of white on the back of his/her head, the small yellow...
  18. Cockatiel Mutations and Genetics
    I have a whitefaced lutino male paired with a female whitefaced pearl. Their first clutch they threw a whitefaced lutino and something else. 'She' (sex unknown) is grey with some silver pearling. Light grey cheek patches have just shown up, as well as a light silver streak on her crest...
