Hi Maurizio

Do you realise that we have a sister group called Talkcockatiels - see the bottom of the column on the left side of the page.
There will obviously be more people with cockatiel experience in that group - So, I suggest you join that group to get answers to both these and future questions.

Wishing you well with the purchase of your cockatiels. I hope they'll quickly settle in to their new home (The red eyes are perfectly normal, it's just a different mutation.) :)

Thanks for the replay and i know, I'm already part of it but they don't allow me to publish the questions i think something went wrong with the autentification thats why I'm asking here but I've decided with cool head I'm first getting and bonding with the white faced grey pearl possibly ghost pearl and most likely male, the info from the petshop as always on point haha those guys are clueless what people have told me and the little search points out its a male because of the whiter face and the tail feathers, still if someone would like to give more info or opinions ill be happy thanks.

Beautiful pic's. I would suggest you send a message or PM to KateC as she is the most knowledgeable person I have dealt with on this forum in regard's to tiel sexing. Usually pic's of the tail and wing's undersides is most helpful, and the particular mutation's involved here can be very tough. Behavior based sexing is very unreliable with young tiel. Good luck and of course keep us posted and pictured up...:001_smile:
