Hi
I am looking into purchasing an albino lutino cockatiel. I have had albino animals and fortunately, they never had the common ailements that an albino can have. It is my understanding that an albino lutino is a color mutation only. Is their anyone who has experience with an albino color mutation? Or is there any health issues that come with having an albino brid?
thanks

I had a Breeding Pair of albino cockatiels and i never had any health issues. Same With my Lutino Budgies ( Parakeets )

Lutino is Usually yellow with red eyes.
Albino is usually white with red eyes.

But saying that one of my normal grey cockatiels had red sure he was evil as he was always biting his and generally trying to get you hehehehe.

As with all animals providing they are well fed and well looked after and as soon as any problems arise they are treated then all should be fine they dont usually live a shorter life so i would say go for it they are beautiful..
