The Lutino-Whiteface
(Albino) Cockatiel

The Albino cockatiel is pure white with red eyes. It is really a double mutation consisting of Lutino, which prevents melanin from depositing in the plumage, and Whiteface, which prevents the lipochrome pigments from depositing in the plumage.

Lutino-Whiteface cockatiels are impossible to visually sex; it is best to have a DNA blood test to determine gender if it cannot be determined from the genetics of the parents.
