I thought it would be helpful to add a cockatiel mutations guide but I need your help with photos. I would love to be able to have a male and female example for most like greys, etc. I know it'll be tough to collect all of them but I think we can manage to fill in most of them. I can post Baby as and example of a grey female but I need a normal grey male also. We can maybe use Cookie as the white face female, then we need a male. We have our choice in pied males so Laura and Bea, it's up to you to decide. Any pearls, lutinos (Laura),cinnamons...as many as possible would be great. Try and post a clear whole body image. I hope you all you guys can help- thanks!

 

[Bea]

Cookie - whiteface normal female

Bailee - cinnamon pied male

 

[Aly]

Oh! Bailee's a cinnamon pied- I just realized that. Ok. Thanks.

 

[Plukie]

Dooby is a normal grey....unless you know different.

 

[Tiffany]

Louie: Male white face cockatiel.

Lola: Female lutino cockatiel

Charlie: Female Cinnamon cockatiel

 

[Aly]

Tiffany- do you have some full body pics (close up) of Charlie and Louie?

 

[Aly]

Thanks Plukie! Dooby might be confusing though..lol

 

[Plukie]

Poor Dooby!!

 

[Aly]

Poor Dooby!!

He's almost there! No worries! Dooby is a doll!

 

[Babi]

(A baby) Male or Female Whiteface Lutino

 

[Sarin]

Young Male Golden Pearl. (Pretty sure he's male anyway )

Cinnamon Pied Whiteface.



I have a Grey split Lutino male, and a Pied Pearl Lutino hen if you'd like pictures of them as well?

 

[Laura]

Babi what an adorable baby you have there, I love the whiteface lutino
Aly I will try and get a good pic of Minnie today for the lutino

 

[Tiffany]

Here is the best pic of Louie's full body:

The only other pic I have of Charlie is this:

 

[Aly]

Thanks everyone...anyone want to help with editing the pics? Pretty please?

 

[Rosie]

I will, well if you tell me what to do, I've got photoshop.

 

[Aly]

I will, well if you tell me what to do, I've got photoshop.

Thanks Rosie- Just cut out any extra anything and just focus on the tiel- We can use Tiffany's Louie and Bea's cookie for the whiteface male and female, Sarin's golden pearl,-Laurago's Minnie for a Lutino...this is harder then I thought..hehe

 

[Aly]

Ok- after super reading about these mutations I noticed that Baby has too many yellow markings on her chest to be a grey..according to the cockatiel society she should be shown in the SPLIT to category...she's not really that grey either..more brown..I'm a little confused.

 

[Bea]

Use Georgie as the normal grey female then, but i think Baby fits the role just as well.

 

[Laura]

hmmm Georgie has the markings on her chest as well, as far as I knew its normal, I didn't notice in her pic's that baby is more brown she looks grey to me and don't tell me I am colour blind

 

[Bea]

I think the yellow blends through the grey making a browny colour.
