Power Female on eggs!

Here was one of our more exciting clutches of the year. This girl is the one in our avatar. This Sterling female was bred by our Pied male, so Pastel Het Pieds and Pewter Het Pieds. Man I hope for a pile of Pewters. Another interesting point in this clutch is that I only ever felt 5 follicles, but we got 7 eggs. Upon further inspection, we found 2 of the eggs to be infertile, so we still only ended up with 5 eggs. I think I am really liking these Homozygous females. Here is the pic.

I hope you enjoy the pic as much as I enjoyed seeing the clutch,

wow that is a awsome bp!

Awesome female and clutch! That is an great breeder female to have! The pewter pied will rock!

Gawd she's gorgeous Tim. Can't wait to see what comes out of those eggs of hers.

Pewters would be great without out doubt -- but you really can't lose with this pairing Tim. :gj: Best of luck on the five. :D

Congrats :gj:

you can get pewters from breeding a steriling to something else? Odds must be low on that right? I may be wrong I just got back from a 7 hour drive not too long ago lol I figure you would get pastels 100% het pied, Cinnies 100% het pied and maybe some norm het pieds or what you mean when you say pewter pieds it the breeding of the offspring from this clutch. Please help my brain hurts.

i bet that was exciting lol congratz!

Sterling is a super pastel cinny, so all babies will have the pastel gene and each will have a 50% chance of being a pewter. No chance for a normal - that is what is so cool with homogeneous genes.

WOW! Congrats Tim! Pewter Het Pied.......I was talking to a friend about that tonight. Best of luck with the Ball God on this one :)
