Anyone had a bird like this? It's Dave. He's pied moslty white. He's probably about 10 months old.

Double factor dominant pieds often have an iris ring on one eye and none on the other.

So it will always be dark? Is it all pupil? Can he see okay? He's the sweetest bird.

As Kaz states it is a normal occurance in Double factor dominant pieds. Looking at your sig he shows signs of matching that. Does he have many markings on his wings?

He lookd DF dom pied. Another sign of DF dom pied is the BOYS almost always have a two colour cere....it is usually pink with small splotches of blue. If a normal dom pied the cere would be all blue in a male.

What is the double factor? No markings on his wings. There's blue patch between his wings. He's a funny bird. When he's hungry he flies in the kitchen. One time he landed in my lasagna I was making. He also likes his alone time away from the flock unlike the others.DaveHere's his back.Sorry for the weird postings. I keep losing my connection. Here's his back.

very cute and yes he is a DF domiant pied.

 

this means he has 2 gene for the pied gene making him lost more markings and colouring on his body. the signs are none to almost none markings on the wings.

 

your yellow bird on the right is a single factor dom pied so you can compaire the differance in them

No it is not all pupil. The iris itself is just black coloured.

If it was all pupil (which it isn't) then you would be worried about CNS problems and damage to the retina and optic nerve.
