That is neat that some tend to have a pink hue. I don't think I would be able take the eggs out and candle them. But then again I would love to see a little bird move inside it's egg

That would be a helpful way to tell if the eggs were fertile, lets see if the theory is true!

No WF's from these guys i'm afraid. WF is recessive as far as i know so it would have to come from both parents to show in the bubs, and Bailee isn't WF and neither were his parents. There's a slim slim chance that there could be WF somewhere down the line, but it's not likely that he'd be carrying it.

I'll keep one baby, and sell the rest.

Srry to bring up some thing old but Mom is a WF split to pied And dad is a Cinny pied so wouldn't All the babies be split to Wf , and some cinnamon? Some males split to pied & wf (i'm not cheating and using a vitural breeder i swear)

Cookie: Wf Split pied
Bailee: Cinnamon pied

Male offspring
50% pied split to Wf {x1 cinnamon}
50% grey split to Wf Pied{x1 cinnamon}

Female
50% pied cinnamon split to WF
50% cinnamon split to Wf pied.

I like playing with this virtual breeder(not sure whats up with this x1 stuff. I've found a great mate for slush haha. A Cinny pearl pied =). Not likey going to happen but still a thought.
Using this thing i found out hugs is split to {x2 cinny pearl}

Wow! I haven't been here in a while (kinda lost interest in quite a few of my normal forums after yet another loss... RIP my sweet little Snowy... ;-; ), so I thought I'd check back and see how everyone's doing, and wow, what a surprise! Bailee and Cookie are going to have some beautiful little bubs

Edit by me: Not what I said, but I'm sure they are...

Egg #5 arrived this morning.

Srry to bring up some thing old but Mom is a WF split to pied And dad is a Cinny pied so wouldn't All the babies be split to Wf , and some cinnamon? Some males split to pied & wf (i'm not cheating and using a vitural breeder i swear)

Cookie is whiteface split to pied, Bailee is a cinnamon pied split to lutino. So, babies:

Males: normal greys, pieds (both split to whiteface, cinnamon, maybe lutino, etc)

Females: cinnamons, cinnamon pieds, lutinos

Congrats on #5 Bea how are Cookie and Bailee doing

 

[xxxSpikexxx]

Congradulations on egg number 5 I wonder how many Cookie will have?

 

[Bea]

how are Cookie and Bailee doing

They're doing wonderfully!! I'm so proud of them. I was meaning to post this yesterday, but i saw that they were both in the nest box, and then Bailee jumped out to see who was in the room. When i peeked in Cookie was sitting on two eggs and there were the other two right under where Bailee would've been. So sweet how they share.

I wonder how many Cookie will have?

Hopefully no more!! :lol: I don't want her job to be too hard for her first time as a mummy.

 

[Laura]

That is so awesome Bea, they are doing everything they should be you must be so proud of them

 

[Sophia]

Aww! They are really great parents, and love each other, to be sharing the job!

Cookie plucked her tummy didn't she, has Bailee done this aswell ???

 

[Bea]

Cookie plucked her tummy didn't she, has Bailee done this aswell ???

Nope, plucking a brooding patch is a female thing.

 

[Sophia]

If Bailee did do it then, that would be strange! Good Cookie doing that for her eggies!! And good Bailee aswell! For sharing the egg time!

 

[Bea]

Cookie was on a mission to eat this morning. My feeding routine went like this: put the seed in (so Cookie sat on the seed dish and started eating), put some moist egg & biscuit mix in (so Cookie moved over and sat on the e&b dish and started eating), put some veggies in (so Cookie moved again and sat on the veggie dish to eat). :rofl: All this time Bailee was on egg duty. I'm hoping no more eggs are laid cause Cookie seems to be having trouble covering all her eggs with her tummy. I can just see her sitting in there saying "I know i've been eating lots mum, but geez! I'm not that fat!".

 

[xxxSpikexxx]

Sounds like she is trying to get fat So she can sit on all those eggs

 

[Laura]

She sure does have a good appetite, she has to keep her strength up to run after those little babies

 

[Bea]

Seeing as i've been depriving you all of egg photos, here's Cookie with her five eggs.

 

[xxxSpikexxx]
