Hi guys,
We had one of the mandarin chicks that hatched turn out all yellow with red and blue eyes.
Has anyone had this before?
We had to bathe her a few times as she wasn’t taking care of his plumage like the others but she’s eating and growing well.
Since being so light will it be a problem outside?
She’s not getting picked on and is doing great in the new outdoor enclosure.
Any help appreciated !
Thanks

Guessing it's not albino and it's just a white one. There's not a ton online genetically about them but generally white morphs are recessive, so even if parents were both 'normal' colored they both carried the gene for white. As for being outside, as long as the enclosure is secure and predators can't get in, you're probably fine :)
