Hi, I know this is kind of off track but I noticed this bird, one of omelette's young... I notice it has flecking on its head and doesn't have any cheek patches... Is this "special"?...

I find it so beautiful though.... Sorry for my lack of knowledge....

:P Flecking is a trait that comes through opaline breeding on the whole and not a desirable thing if you are breeding for show. This hen is a grey opaline spangle............her cheek patches are there but would likely be grey and white or mostly white due to the spangle inheritance and therefore not easily seen, especially in this particular photo.

So pleased She loved the new Aviary! I bet she loved stretching her wings :P

She has stopped at six :D

 

Slowing down hey?

 

maybe the time in the flights was the worst thing that could happen to her. She only wants half a clutch now so she can go back to the flights sooner - :D
