    My first clutch hatched..unbelievable odds..Pastel het pied x het pied

    This was my first attempt at breeding last season and I made the newb mistake of confusing building with ovulation so since it was so late in the season I had gave up on this girl but then I saw ovulation and like everyone says once you see it for the first time you cant mistake it. I raised the female from a hatchling so its been a long wait until this point and the piebald mutation is what got me into this hobby. I was so proud of her laying 7 eggs her first time and they all candled even 2 boob eggs. I built a incubator out of a mini fridge and was alittle concerned through out the process but it did great and they started to hatch on day 57 . anyhow enough talk here are some pics from start to finish. I still cant believe these results

    550 gram male getting it done



    Day before ovulation




    Havent sexed them yet but the results are 2 pastel pieds,2 pieds,1 pastel poss het,2 normals poss het



    Pastel Pied 76 grams straight out of the egg



    I will take some better pics after they shed. Even the pastel and normals have some really nice markers and the pastel even has a slight ringer
    10 0.1 mojave
    11 0.1 bumblebee
    11 0.1 cinnamon
    12 1.2 pastel pied
    14 1.0 pewter het pied
    14 0.1 queenbee
    14 1.0 fire calico

    Wow you hit the jackpot on your first try. I'm so jealous since still probably 2 years away from even trying to breed. What a great clutch. I would have such a hard time deciding what to hold back and what to rehome.
