As far as GCC's go as a species I know they have different color mutations. For example: Normal GCC, cinnamon, pineapple, yellow-sided, turquoise.

My question is even though they are the same species do they have different personality traits?

As in are turquoise known to be more energetic, normal's to be sweeter, cinnamons to be more calm, etc, etc... (Not stating this as fact, just making it up as an example). I know that regardless of color all GCC's have different personalities, which is why I think they are truly awesome and unique pets!

Thanks, this is really just for curiosity purposes!

i have an cinnamon,rose crowned,yellow sided and a hybrid from the first 2.
my cinnamon is anything but calm she is pretty much *****y and the playground bully,but sticks like qlue to my rose crowned.
my rose crowned is a happy bow with lots of energie and is never down.
my yellow sided-is a bit shy but gets his ballsy moments and loves playing with every toy.
my hybrid is the has the most energie i have ever seen and is a true daredevil and
stubborn to a fault.

Nope. All individuals have their own unique personalities, but other than that there aren't any huge differences between the mutations. "Same model, different paint job." :)

Correct, it is simply a color difference, so feel free to pick your color based only on color :)

normal female gcc-Shyra,
normal male gcc-Morpheus,
cinnamon female gcc-Meeka,
(Meeka and Morpheus are a pair and are parents of Shyra)
-The only thing I've heard about different gcc mutations is their size. Like that cinnamons are usually supposedly smaller, which seems to be true for me at least. My cinnamon girl Meeka is noticeably smaller than my normals Morpheus and Shyra. I'm not sure if there are any other supposed size differences though.
-Personalities though are all in the bird no matter what color ;p
