PALLID AND PALLID-INO ARE THEY DIFFERENT !!

Heya, there is indeed when it comes to genetics.
A Pallid-ino, is a bird that carries the ino gene as a split. However pallid and ino are so closely linked that they actually mesh with each other in the males.
Visually, a pure pallid is generally of darker body than pallidino birds. Pallidino birds get lighter and lighter in colour the more times you put them to albino or creamino hens.
I have a pic up of a pallidino grey cock bird that was derived from continually putting pallidino greys to albino hens.
Each generation of pallidino and ino birds breeding together will lighten the body colour. You can end up with pallidino green males that look like a lutino, and pallidino grey males that look like an albino with a black ring.
This does produce lighter coloured hens, but not to the same extent and can take more generations.
Because these mutations are sex linked, hens can only be pallid OR ino, not both, but males can be pallid, ino, or pallidino.
Some people prefer the darker body with the bright contrasting head, some people like the lighter softer body with the pale head, others like the extremes like lutino looking birds with blackish brown neck rings or albino looking birds with black rings. Its all in the genetics.

There is actually a sticky (a forum topic that remains at the top) in the photo section of this forum.
