My tiel is a "light brown" he is called a cinnamon, whiteface cockatiel. It is not a weird mutation, they are quite common (over in Australia, anyways)

Wow, all have cinnamons. Mine will be harder to sex visually tho, cos s/he? has a white face, so will need to wait a little longer - after moult, then not guarenteed to get it right. Currently 5mths old. But I think he is a she cos he doesnt really make many different noises, just the same old sound (calling sound when I leave the room or he wants out)Good thing he has a unisex name)
