Abstract
For cockatiel enthusiasts, whether
beginners, seasoned breeders or
owners of pet cockatiels, Linda
Rubin's Cockatiel Color Mutations is
an excellent reference on this
subject.
Written with clear, understandable
language, this guide gives a comprehensive
study on the color pigmentations
found in cockatiels.
The first 11 chapters are based on a
series of articles by Linda Rubin
entitled ''Color Pigmentations in
Cockatiels" originally published in
American Cage Bird Magazine.
Linda wrote a column in ACBM called
''Talk from Tango wood:'
These chapters explain the mutations
that have appeared in cockatiels.
These mutations are explained
in terms of color pigmentation. This
in-depth study gives a thorough
understanding of why mutations
appear the way they are seen visually.
