What gender were its parents? If neither were ino, that would mean the dad would be split to ino and the baby will be a hen.

 

It looks like a hen.

Thanks

can you please explain, why do you think it is hen. I tried to understand but I thought it's a cock. I don't see any blue/white spot on cere

Hi KiwiBudgie, young hens often start off with a pale blue ceres and not all have white which can make it harder to sex some young hens until it starts to change to brown and male lutinos mostly have a pink or flesh coloured cere it doesn't change to blue.
