Update: all the chicks are looking great, unfortunately the 2 day old chick did not make it,

the reason why i think is, it hatched 1 day after the first... so i would say it hatched too early...and didn't survive.

Unfortunately, i no longer have a camera, i plan on getting one as soon as possible though, my last camera became history when it dropped on the cement, :D

UPDATE:

Pair 1 Male: light green split blue+albino

Hen: violet opaline

Results: 1 normal blue, 1 grey-green, 1 normal grey, 1 red-eyed albino (eldest 3 weeks & 5 days - Youngest 2 weeks old)

 

Pair 2 Male: Yellow double factor spangle(green series)

Hen: Type 2 yellowface violet opaline cobalt

Results: 4 chicks, Unknown mutation, 1 has white fuzz at 2 days old which might indicate opaline

 

Pair 3 Male: Grey & white Dominant pied

Hen: Red-eyed albino

Results: 1/5 hatched, looks like nothing behind eye, which means its red-eyed albino like the mother.

 

 

So far its looking great. eldest chicks will be ready to come out in a few more days. :question:

Alrighty, ill give her back to the pet shop, what about her huge egg bum, will it go away?

It will reduce some in size but will stay spongey feeling.

She actually layed an egg, only to find that it had quite a fair bit of dried up blood on the egg, so i threw it out and took her out of the aviary for a few days then stuck her back in, she now plays with the quails down the bottom regularly with her other mate, i even saw her sit on the quail eggs while the quails decided to go to the other side of the aviary for a feed :question:
