Emerald Cockatiels?

[JEANETTEFLORES]

I need information on the emerald cockatiel? I have a male. I would like to know what is the best mutation color to put with him. I have him with two females. One is a whiteface lutino(albino) and the other is a whiteface fallow pearl. Thank you. birdlady_wi@yahoo.com

If they have no splits your results would be:

Mother:Whiteface Lutino
Father:Olive

male offspring:
100% Grey Split To Olive Whiteface {X2: Lutino}

female offspring:
100% Grey Split To Olive Whiteface



Mother:Fallow Whiteface Pearl
Father:Olive

male offspring:
100% Grey Split To Fallow Olive Whiteface {X2: Pearl}

female offspring:
100% Grey Split To Fallow Olive Whiteface


All of your resulting chicks would be greys. Do you know if they are split to anything? A good sign your male is split to pied is a patch on the back of his neck/head somewhat like this:

I found the picture using google. It isn't an olive, but it shows what you should be looking for.
