Can she be white, without being albino?

One of my hens is pure white with pale pink skin, but her eyes are completely normal... I know with budgies this would be referred to as 'dark eyed clear' so I wondered how it is with ringnecks. Is she still albino? Or is she simply white?

You may have an extremely pale dilute or similar type. I had a black eyed yellow that bred two lacewing or pallids with black eyes. I still have one of these birds now paired to a blue cock out of interest in the offspring outcome. You should enquire on the parentage and also pair this bird to a green / blue partner to breed the yellow variant before moving to other mutations to evaluate it's inheritance type.
