Could someone tell me what a creamino is?????

I've never heard of that before.

Creamino is a yellowface albino. To get an albino you need the ino gene and a blue gene, yellowface is a type of blue gene that doesn't full remove the yellow from the bird when matched to the ino gene leaves a cream or mellow yellow hue over the bird.

OOOOOOOHHHHHHH!!!!!

Sounds cute!!!

They are, I'm looking for a picture but can't seem to find the site I've seen one on before.

 

Here is one:

They're very pretty.. I still kind of wish I would have gotten the one I saw last year.. before I decide to get another budgie.

I think the yellow little girl is a creamino... Please correct me if I'm wrong.

 

tis is shadow he is a creamino

 

Here is a really good page explaining budgie genetics:

Go down to the lutino/albino section and at the bottom it has 3 really good pictures of the different degrees of creamino you can get.

Hope that helps

thanks sailor that was the one I was looking for.

 

I thought there was a few members around with creaminos

 

Cheeta has your little one got a name?

Someone said my Boss was a creamino but isn't he/ she too yellow for a creamino ??? I don't know. Maybe its the photo but Boss has an all over yellow look but has white feathers showing through everywhere and RED eyes.

yes boss is, becuase the yellow is patchy. a lutino has a bright even yellow all over (sometimes with white flight feathers)

Thanks Nerwen....my confusion is at an end

Cheeta has your little one got a name?

 

Hi Nerwen, yes I have names for those two..

 

he Creamino is called 'Yue Liang'.. Meaning Moon in Chinese.. YUE is pronouced YET but with 'T' being silence. Liang pronouced Lee-young

 

The albino is called 'Bai Shing' meaning 'white star' in chinese.
