Unexpected pied in clutch?

I cut this clutch today on day 55, and found something very strange.
The pairing was an Albino Pinstripe Female X Pied Male.
The eggs seem to show: 4 normals, 3 pinstripes, and 1 pied.....

What do you guys think about this egg? It looks to be a high white piebald. Do you think this could be just an extreme ringer?
If the mother is in fact a het, would there not likely be more than this one lone pied when paired with a visual?


Thanks,

I would guess that your female is a Het. The odds aren't always in your favor....

You can have a het female to a visual male and get *no* pieds, roll of the genetic dice. So one pied is good news! Looks like your gal is het pied! Congrats!!

....and it's het for albino! There's a keeper for sure! :)

Looks like a pied to me! She has to be a het. And I don't think it's weird to just have one. Odds really suck sometimes, and sometimes the odds give you everything in your favor

ditto, Pied ... nice to get lucky every now & then! congrats!

That's a Pied you can see the belly.

As for the odd it does not always work in your favor.

I have done visual to het and produce zero visual in the past.

And I have done het to het with 50% of the clutch being visual.

Remember your odds are per egg.

holy smokes what an awesome surprise! Congrats!

Any updated pics on the pied baby?

Always great to get an unexpected hatchling. :gj::gj:

I got 2 visual Albinos out of an Axanthic X Albino clutch.
