I couldn't wait any longer. I snipped a little flap on each egg and peeked. I think all four are normals judging from the little I could see of them. Lame... But they're all 66% poss. het pieds. I'll post pics when they actually start emerging from the eggs on their own.

I wish I had a pied. I would ship it to you ASAP. ;-;
I'm so sorry. Hopefully one turns out to have a little white, or maybe if you breed the this generation of 66% hets you'll get a pied next time.
Sorry.

That's a bummer. Will she be ready to go again this coming season or does the maternal incubation take to much out of them? Either way...just keep trying and hopefully all of these babies make it out healthy!
I'm actually going to pick up a pair of Het pieds in a few hours! Hopefully I'll hit on pieds in a few years!
Good luck in the future with all of your projects!
Thanks, guys. I haven't checked back in on the eggs yet this morning but if one turned out to be a really low white pied that would be great. Kyriel is not thrilled with the egg goo that spilled after recoiling her eggs and I'm giving her some time to readjust to this new element.
A friend of mine is going to loan me her pied male for the upcoming season after Kyriel regains some more weight so I should have some better odds next year. She's been feeding fairly well while incubating so she should be able to breed again the season. I'll just see how it goes.
Both originated from Jason Feagans in Kentucky but were purchased at different times. Both are supposed to share the same pied father. I don't think I was taken because Jason seems to be a reputable guy according to everyone I've spoken with who has dealt with them.
Hopefully this was just a case of lousy odds. I'll breed the female again when she's ready and hopefully things will pan out better. If I pair her with my friend's pied and she still only throws normals, I'll be a bit perturbed.
