Well Greeny has started again. First laid 22nd February the last today. one everyother day. we are up to 7 eggs. I wish I had some more pairs down I could foster them out.

 

I candled them last night and found 2 out 3 where fertile. the other 3 where too young.

 

I realised from the last clutch that Greeny must be split to recessive pied. I got all recessive pied when mated to a recessive pied. The only way to get them is to mate recessive to recessive or recessive to normal/recessive. As Duey is a recessive pied, greeny must be split.

 

How did I go Nerwen?

The Recessive Pied

Pairings and Expectations

 

Recessive Pied × Recessive Pied = Recessive Pied

Recessive Pied × Normal/Recessive Pied = Normal/Recessive Pied & Recessive Pied

Recessive Pied × Normal = Normal/Recessive Pied

Normal/Recessive Pied × Normal = Normal/Recessive Pied & Normal

Normal/Recessive Pied × Normal/Recessive Pied = Recessive Pied & Normal/Recessive Pied & Normal

Normal × Recessive Pied = Normal/Recessive Pied cocks & Normal/Recessive Pied hens

are you going to mail me a baby

Good luck Daz, are you hoping to get some mormals this time

yay more babies!!!

Daz, you and I are on the same boat, except my pair is a normal blue hen and a dominant pied opaline blue male, she laid her last #7 on the 3rd, first chick is due to hatch on Wednesday and no other pairs to foster out to.

I've candled 4 out of the 7 from her and all have been fertile thus far. :bluebudgie:

So do I. I want to keep one of the chicks this time.
