The parents will have red eyes, they just darken as the bird gets older and they will appear black. If yo look at them in direct sunlight or with a torch, you will find that the parents do have red eyes.

Ino is the name given to the gene.
The babies are called Lutino.

Green Ino = Lutino
Blue Ino = Albino
Parblue Ino = Creamino
