Platinum

I recently ran across an advertisement for Platinum IRN's. I have looked around and I am not familiar with this term.
What is a Platinum genetically? The photo looks to be a soft silvery blue mutation.

Re: Color info ID

The lady that "prepared" the birds to be picked up by me thought she would be helpful and cut their wings. I was so upset when I seen that. But they will grow back.
Thanks so much for the input on my birds. It is truly appreciated.

Re: Color info ID

Hi!!
When I looked up the Id info of the Blue's, I read that the Blue's have black nails..do they have black nails?
This pair did produce for the previos owner, but he did not keep any records of them. He is in a bad spot, suffered a major heart attack and needed to rehome many of his birds.

Re: Vitamin A Info

Thanks so much for the bit of info!! It is such a treat to see the birds enjoy what they are eating. My husband says I have spoiled my birds, but I do not mind it. I have them here to enjoy and enrich my life, so I feel it is up to me to give them a home that will take care of them.

Creamino's

Hello, I am new on this forum. I have been thinking about purchasing a Creamino. I am not educated enough with the genetics of the Creamino's so I am a bit skeptical of this mutation. Can anyone please tell me if the Creamino's are a Turquoise-ino? When the term Ino is used, is it better to have use...
