I was looking at the chicks and saw the second one was a bit different, his (closed) eyes are not dark like his siblings'! I googled it because I thought he was born with no eyes and then I discovered something! He might be an albino! or lutino with red eyes (I'm not sure if that can be possible) anyway, I can't get a proper photo of him now but I'm gonna post the one I saw on internet as an example: I repeat, this is not my photo, nor my chicks.Do you see that little one with no dark under the eyeldis? that's how my second chick's eyes look like. Any thoughts?

The baby next to its an albino aswell. If you look at the eyes their red aswell. Which means the male is split which would mean the babie inos are females

Ohhh so the albino gen comes from Poki? I thought maybe it would come from Leelo I don't know why... From what I've been told from other members here, Leelo is a green diluted and Poki a clear flight. Their first and third chick have dark eyes and the second chick has eyes just like in the picture... I'm so excited!

Also from what I've read, lutino is not sex-linked in cockatiels, so I would assume the same holds true for budgies

Thanks Lisa! I'm gonna get a photo as soon as I can, I promise Uhm I'm a little confused now, Lutinos and Albinos are different, right? if so, what are their differences?

Also from what I've read, lutino is not sex-linked in cockatiels, so I would assume the same holds true for budgies Cockatiels and budgies are two different species of birds......you can not get male inos from a split only male. You get female inos from an split ino male or ino male.... If you had a ino female you wouldn't get any visual inos but males split for it lutino and albino are the same you can get either lutino or albino from a blue or green bird but a blue pair would be albino.

ooohh I see, so this chick is more likely to be a female lutino?
