discussion explaining the possibilities of crossover (recombinant
genetics)
- Unlike computer programs, enables unlimited charting.
Accommodates any number of color mutations in the same pair

Testimonial "When I first began studying cockatiel genetics it was so confusing. Then I purchased "COCKATIEL GENETICS MADE EASY!" and suddenly the light came on! It all came together! It seemed so easy." - Nancy Rocheleau, former NCS Secretary, (from the January-February 1999 NCS Journal). |

"Well, there is help on the horizon and anyone seriously interested in color genetics should take a
look at Linda Rubin's book: COCKATIEL GENETICS MADE EASY! Though this book is primarily directed
to breeders of cockatiel mutations, there is enough information in this volume to teach anyone the
secrets of dealing with recessive, sex-linked, and dominant mutations.
I have been a teacher at both high school and college levels and know that the key to good teaching
is organization, simplicity and repetition. Well, you will find all of these in the fifteen chapters of this
book. It takes you step by step from the simplest pairing to complex combinations.
Each chapter is arranged like a true workshop by giving you an introduction to a specific color
mutation, demonstrating how the colors can be combined, then asking you to do a similar problem and
finally giving you a little quiz at the end which tests whether you have truly mastered that chapter.
I found that the materials kept me interested which is a sure sign that the book uses a sound strategy
and that it will give much pleasure and knowledge to all who had almost given up on learning how to
predict colors when working with color mutations."
- Dr. Rainer R. Erhart, American Cage Bird Magazine, Volume 65, No. 12. p. 37.
