New IRN, not sure on gender yet but being referred to as 'she'. I thought albino, but the seller (whom had no idea on birds and hated them hence the sale) said she was purchased as a cremello, i'm not 100% on IRN mutations as yet. But she had $40 for a quick sale so i'm not complaining, i think she's adorable. and i'm inlove with her eyes.

hi there, she is beautiful, maybe post a full body pic of her and we can tell whether she is alibno or creamino?
What have you named her?

Hi there

definitely albino. Apparently the majority of albino's are female, so it may be a she. The only way you can find out is through DNA testing though.

Well done Mallykat,

I knew you would find something in you price range. (bargain) :mrgreen:
Very nice birdy.

Just remember everything i said to do before introducing her/him to its mate.

By the way thats a girl for sure, you can put it next to your male and your male should start to dance next to her/him, may help prove it, although some hens do it too but not alot.

Thanks Glenn :D I was very happy when i found her, The woman hated birds and wanted rid of her. Mine i thought! hehe. She's a sweety. Bitey, but she lets me near her and put my hands in the cage. Sano cracks a spac when i go near him. So glad this ones a lil diff. Only problem so far is her beak is a tad long, and she has lice. So i gave her a jumbo cuttle bone and wood to chew, and sprayed her for lice.

Thankyou Ellie!

Oh, by the way, the small cage is only temporary! Please don't think I would keep an IRN in a cage of that size permanently. She has lice so is quarantined from my other birds til they're gone. :)
