Hi Charmian et al
 
This problem came up on the chat line fairly recently when there were some very pink Sulphur Crested  Cockatoos in Holt .
 
The discussion can be found in the COG archives starting from here
 
 
Somebody suggested too much caratein (or however you spell the stuff in carrots and elsewhere that makes flamingos pink).
I have lots of photos of  the pink Holt cockatoos and corellas, I will send you some off line.
