What is Erythrism? Erythrism or erythrochroism refers to an unusuaI reddish pigmentation of an animaI's fur, hair, skin, feathers, or eggshells.  If you have never heard of Xanthochromism It's basically like Erythrism but they have a yellow pigmentaion in their fur.  This bird is an example of Xanthochromism Xanthochromism (also called xanthochroism or xanthism) is an unusually yellow pigmentation in an animal. It is often associated with the lack of usual red pigmentation and its replacement with yellow. The cause is usually genetic but may also be related to the animal's diet. A Cornell University survey of unusual-looking birds visiting feeders reported that 4% of such birds were described as xanthochromistic (compared with 76% albinistic). The opposite of xanthochromism, a deficiency in or complete absence of yellow pigment, is known as axanthism. Now I have always loved These types of mutations and if you disagree please state why you don't ^^. |

I completely respect your opinion ^^ It wouldn't actually look more like a base maybe for Ery but Xantho Is like Albinoism, They don't hear or see good and have yellow pigments to them (like seen in the pic) some even have Albinoism eye's. But it's also known as Xanthochromia. Also some more fact's about animal's with Xanthochromia have symptoms as well: Cerebrospinal fluid that occurs several hours after bleeding into the subarachnoid space caused by certain medical conditions, most commonly subarachnoid hemorrhage.  0 players like this post!
