Albino kiwi are generally white. However, white kiwi are not always genuine albinos. In most cases, they are normal Brown Kiwi which happen to carry a gene for white feathers.

Where was the kiwi first born?

It is not known where the first white kiwi was hatched. In 2011, a famous white kiwi chick dubbed Manukura was hatched from Brown Kiwi parents that were brought from Little Barrier Island. Little Barrier Island has a number of white kiwi and kiwi with white markings, so although Manukura is a rarity in the captive breeding programme, she is by no means the first white kiwi hatched, nor completely unique.
