Hello everybody! :)
I have 2 budgies, 2 cockatiels and 4 cockatiel babies.
My male cockatiel, Ruudi, is normal gray and female, Freya, is cinnamon pearl (?). One baby cockatiel has dark pigment? I guess... The baby has black feet, black crest.
We had to seperate Ruudi from babies - he started plucking the feathers... Freya is a good mama and takes a good care of the babies.
What else.... I live in Estonia... so English isn't my native language. So sorry for my English.

Thank you for your time :)

Welcome! Your tiels are beautiful. :) Freya is the tiel in the back in the second pic? She's definitely Pearl something. I'm not sure from the pic if I'm seeing cinnamon or not. A Pearl pied maybe? I'm not the best with mutations. This site is helpful: Pearl - Just Cockatiels!

@Monica ?

Welcome!

She looks to be pearl pied. As for cinnamon, I can't really tell with the lighting/filters :)

Welcome! I hope you enjoy the forum.
Your flock is stunning!

Freya does seem to be a Pearl mutation, but from the picture she doesn't look like a Cinnamon Pearl to me. I also see a bit of some light pied markings on her neck.

My hen is a Cinnamon Pearl and split to pied.
Does Freya look like this?

If that is a picture of Mimi, she's not split to pied, she is definitely visual pied :)

Yup it is.
Really? Didn't know that! I've always been told she was split.
Thanks for letting me know. :)

Split pied will show as white blotches around the body (usually behind the head), a streaked crest, striped beak, and patchy feet with different colored toenails. Phoenix is split pied :)

Visual pied will have some of the above, but with one or more "clear" (solid yellow-white) flight or tail feather. Mimi's flights are all clear, as well as most of her tail :D

In the picture of Freya you can just see her clear flights behind Ruudi, which leads me to believe she's pied :)

I agree in that Freya is a pearl pied.

Ruudi appears to be normal grey split pearl pied maybe?

Hopefully the two aren't related!



@Sylvi_ I agree with Jaguar, Cinnamon Pearl Pied. :) Casey, my first tiel, is also cinnamon pearl pied! :D

Your birds are very pretty, but I'm terrible with mutations :)
