Hi there.
You have a pair of Ringneck, the cock is Lutino (yellow) and the hen is Albino (white). Pretending that the male is a pure blooded Lutino (came from Lutino cock and Lutino hen), and the female is also a pure blooded Albino (came from Albino cock and Albino Hen).
Male Female
======== ==========
Lutino X Albino
Chicks will be:
Albino Lutino (all female chicks will be Lutino)
Lutino
If you produce a different color, say blue or green, it means that your birds are not pure blooded. They have other genes behind their color.
