Yellow Feathers

Gymnangium montagui

Classification

The lutino cockatiel is one of the most popular mutations of cockatiel, with white to light-yellow feathers and orange/red cheek patches. The "normal grey" or "wild type" of a cockatiel's plumage is primarily grey with prominent white flashes on the outer edges of each wing. However, bird breeders can breed for certain traits, and they have been breeding for different color mutations in cockatiels since the 1940s.
