White Tailed CAG

[Connie]

Has anyone ever heard of, or seen this before?

This is a picture of a White Tailed CAG that I accidently found on the internet.

It must be a genetic variation similar to the Red factor...the white just kept going and going....?

A lovely looking grey i believe known as a blue mutation with the white tail

[loviechick]

Probably the same genetic factor that causes other animals to have a bit of albino in them! Interesting!

It is isn't it, very unique, just like the albino animals you see occasionally, very pretty with pink eyes.

[Connie]

Very unique, but the more I look at it, I'm not so sure I would want one...I love the brilliant red tail on my birds. No offence to that bird, but red isn't as boring as white.

I don't know why the tail is white either. I agree with the mutation concept. Or a doctored photo? But I have no idea!!

[judygram]

I doubt it is a doctored photo, but with computers nowadays I guess anything is possible. I think it is just a genetic mutation, like the albinos.

[lovemyGreys]

I have spoke to my friend Lesley who breeds greys & its definitely a genetic mutation

Well i do think it's lovely & very rare.

It's not a tampered picture, I blew it up to check. I doctor pictures quite often, and can tell the difference in almost every case.

[Connie]

You can, all you need is photoshop and take the tutorials on the internet. Play with the program, it's fun.

This is the same bird, doctored with a red tail. Just a quick job, not the greatest.

Somebody actually just posted a topic like this on another bird forum I go on...is posting a link to another forum ok? If so there are even more pictures of the blue mutation greys...also some of red greys(like all red or mostly red)Let me know and if its ok...I will post it!B)

[Connie]

I think it would be ok, I think people are pretty dedicated to this forum, and wouldn't leave it. I would love to see the pictures.
