Take hold of my first pair of Lutinos in a couple of weeks. Was to get 3 pairs but 1 pair will be better then none. Not sure who on here has any but if you do let me know, would love to get hold of another pair or two.

Are these prs all yellow? These are birds which need to be bred with a split to a yellow or normal to a yellow otherwise the quality will drop dramatically. Craig

I totally agree with Arthur
Years ago I had them here and they were very attractive but in the end I felt sorry for them as they really struggled
on sunny days and spent virtually all their time in the shade. Eventually I had them all in my bird room and they
were far happier and more mobile. A dealer called in and offered me a price I couldn't refuse so that was that.
Would I buy them again no.
Luckily they are one mutation that hasn't ruined the nominated race.

My birds started off when a chap talked me into buying a split cock bird for $15.
I eventually got a hen from a Melb. breeder and the first nest produced 2 yellows from memory
