albino IRN

[watty]

hi, i am just wondering, if white/albino ringnecks grow a ring around their neck or not, as i have one white male.
i dont think he will but he is only about 12 months so i dont know,

these are my IRNs

Hi Andrew,

He will never get a ring around his neck no albino will.

Can ones that are spilt to something else get a ring?

Hi nope if its is a visual blue ino (albino) then it will never have a ring even if its split.
The split is the mutation gene the bird carries but doent display.

The reason albinos dont show a ring is they have no melanin which produces colour.

Lutinos are green birds that have a lack of melanin show they are yellow and still produce the ring.

Hope it helps.
