Opaline
Ah glad I re-looked that up iw as thinking it wuld happen if you already got a girl that wasn't opaline, but it hit me I was thinking of when it's the mother that is opaline, we know Buzz isn't so only Girk can have the gene split. There is a chance bea

New Signature

Opaline

We Have Babies!
Leave the eggs until about a week after the due date, four babies is fine for a hen to look after. Glad to see that you have some babes, now you need to check on mom and bubs at lest ones a day (two is better) to make sure all is going well. ARe they being feed? To check that you need to look around their neck area for a yellow blob that is their crop and means they have food in it. Look around here and you will see HEAPS of first time clutches that worked, even ones that bred and raised clutches with out a box. It does happen. Make sure the parents have plenty of green and seed and egg food to help them feed the babies.

Orphan Eggs
don't worry too much it's when the egg is covered in it, mine had some poop on them too and hatched.

Many Different Coloured Budgies
It's possible the body seems to match that, but from what i know about this one (and mind you this isn't much even with owning one ) they should have grey toned flight wings.
-
Albino?
That's right HurdyBirdy I was abit unsure with the wings, being called cream.
-
Albino?
since female can not be split for the ino gene this doesn't work. The female would have to be a ino for this one to be a boy so I'ld stick to girl :wink: Also one or both of your parents are split to blue becuase to get an albino you need a blue gene and an ino gene. They feather just the same as any other, are you sure she hasn't been plucked? Are you sure she is being feed? How old are the both of them?

Orphan Eggs
At lest 2 should have hatched if she laid them correctly (every two days), maybe three. But if she had more eggs than that it means other could still be devloping in the egg. If you have not marked them for a hatch date then it is best to leave all for the full 18 days and a week after. Of could as lin and Bec have said the hen might get rid of them sooner. Una- poop on and egg can kill a baby inside and if it is been kicked about it mean mother isn't still on it long enough to keep it warm any more.

Help With Identifications
:(Laughing out loud): I blinked a bit at the list, but it's not to much Aleta - lutino (removed the second http// to make it work) Adenydd- Is he young? he looks like a yellowface type 1 opaline and possible donimant pied. Pretty Bird- yellowface type 1 possible grey wing cock. If he is mre purple then he could be single factore violet which look like cobalts. Aolani- This one is a bit fuzy to see. I would say sky blue recessive pied. The spots on the wings don't like light enough to be any sort of dilute and i don't see any yellow on him. Sun- Green dominant pied. Is the feahers on the head alway sticking up? Skye- yellowface type 2 opaline clearwing Phoebe- looks like he had a yellow face mask in the picture, is it the same in real life? If so Yellow face type 1 domainant pied. If not then Cobalt dominant pied. Jaleh- yep normal sky blue. Quetzalcoatl- Opaline green. Liadan- I would thing Mauve as well. You did good for saying your new to genetics.
