It's here, it's here.....more babies...
My long awaited 'whitey' bub has finally arrived! Wooooohoooooo!!!
These trio of chicks are from the same parents as the previous blue and grey chicks I have in the 'for sale' section.

Re: It's here, it's here.....more babies...
Sorry you didn't get your birds. Maybe next time or they will still be available when you do have the money.
Re: It's here, it's here.....more babies...
Hi pinkdevil
nice healthy looking babies there. So I guess it looks like 2 albino 1 ?? Do we get to play the guessing game on colours again this time?
Regards
Shane

Re: It's here, it's here.....more babies...
Sorry pink I left work, Well........... im going to see them this evening, and things were looking good... till my bf said he doesnt want any more, which is okay, my mom says they can live by her! So all in all YAY i should be getting them as soon as the breeder and i have worked out a payment plan... I have even started thinking up names for them, maybe Ice for the girl coz she's white, and PIckle for the boy coz he's different... Any ideas for names? so sosososososos exxxxxxxxxxxcited!!!
Re: It's here, it's here.....more babies...
When are you going to post some updated pics of your bubs? So keen to see how they are growing and looking~!
Re: It's here, it's here.....more babies...

Re: It's here, it's here.....more babies...
haha.....naming is hard. I throw a few names around but mostly wait till the personality shows through.
I have been trying to get updated photos, but mumma is being very protective and goes in the nest box everytime I go near the aviary. Maybe she remembers me taking her first clutch away? But I still keep a look out and try to out smart her....so far not working.
I am not too good with mutations, still learning.

Re: It's here, it's here.....more babies...
shame man, they must be getting so cute! i am still learning the mutations too, but no one seems to know what mine is, hence asking everyone to chuck in their opinion and maybe we'll figure it out!!!

Yeah, I took a look, quite different. Seems it has the experts a bit stumped as well.

Re: It's here, it's here.....more babies...
Here the bubbies are at 1 week of age.
Checkout the chick at the top ...bit of a greedy one. In fact, they are all being well fed. Plenty of fruit, veg, and soft food.
I took the pic on my phone as it is less intrusive than my camera and doesn't upset mumma as much, so excuse the poor quality.

So the countdown is on until the weekend!
Re: It's here, it's here.....more babies...
yeah i cant wait. im a bit annoyed thou, just found out my green male, is female, spoke to the owner of a sibling, and it is male, and completely fully rung since i saw it 5 months ago. which means they are older than the breeder said. but it does the male dance? i am confused!!!!

What colours are they again? White and green???SCB -SA wrote:Pink - is there any chance of my pair producing an albino baby?
Here is an update photo of the 3 chickies.
They are aprox 12 days old today. Look at greedy guts crop!! I think s/he was the last chick to hatch but is the biggest. Obviously enjoys his/her tucker!
The 2 Inos have just opened their eyes.
Re: It's here, it's here.....more babies...
ag man, so precious, what colour are their parents so we can start guessing the colour of little porky there!
My pair is a rainbow male with a albino female, apparently their last clutch was 5 chicks, three blue rainbow and 2 normal rainbow but was wondering if i could get an albino at all?
What age do the chicks start getting pin feathers?

Re: It's here, it's here.....more babies...
@ Porky! I picked them up for the first time today and they are all well fed, just seems 'Porky' likes more than his fair share.....or is the fav child.
I am not sure what to punch in the gen cal for a rainbow bird.....sorry
The parents to these are grey/ino dad and Blue cinnamon mum. Only 2 colours it could be, blue or grey.
Pins start around 3 weeks of age, aprox.

Re: It's here, it's here.....more babies...
aah man they are so precious!! my pair must make me some bubs now!!!
Re: It's here, it's here.....more babies...
Looks like you have 2 definate lutinos with the red eyes and they will be hens possibly masking grey and the other one is going to be either blue or grey.
Re: It's here, it's here.....more babies...
Sorry messed up, that should be 2 hen albinos with the red eyes possibly masking grey.

Well now I have them inside, makes photo taking a lot easier.
Re: It's here, it's here.....more babies...
I noticed that, looks old Porky has either some porridge or poop on its lil wing there... guessing poop thou, otherwise im gonna start wondering how the heck porridge got there, although they do do some strange things while you try feed them....
What colour do you think lil Porkers is gonna be, Pink?

Re: It's here, it's here.....more babies...
I think that is food on 'Porky'. I didn't give a final cleanup before I took the photo.
I am going to have a guess with grey. Kinda looks similar to the other grey.
Thanks Melika....almost?????? May have to entice you with more pics.

It does look grey here but more blue in the other thread!

Well I do find myself now trying to figure out how many aviaries I can put in the upper part of my planned chicken run.pinkdevil wrote:I think that is food on 'Porky'. I didn't give a final cleanup before I took the photo.

But I think to keep the neighbors happy, I would have to go with a quieter breed. Hane is quiet, but his parents aren't! So maybe pionus, poicephalus, or rock pebblers. I just miss raising little ones.
*cough* although I do know if I had IRN pairs I would want ones where the females definitely have a mutation, makes sure they get a good home.
Re: It's here, it's here.....more babies...
Hey Pinkdevil, congratulations, you finally got your Albino's, I know how long you have wanted one!
Re: It's here, it's here.....more babies...
Pinkdevil!! You are slacking its shocking! Where are the updates? We want to see!!
Want to post pics of my new bubby but cant get a nice one, poor baby has a splayed leg!
He is only 3 weeks old, so need to guess his colour too, his mum is a lovely pale blue/white and dad is blue.

Thanks TD, and yes, I sure have been waiting awhile for my 'whitey' lol
Sorry SCB .....will get onto it.
Been busy with doing 'after the rain' jobs. Cleaning aviary feeders from all the wet seed etc, plus trying to keep ontop of all the other chores. A womans work is never done.

Re: It's here, it's here.....more babies...
i know the feeling Pink!
My pair are at my mums place and they are building on to their house and i have never know such inconsiderate people!
we told thm about the birds and asked that they take special care around the cage, so one morning whilst on the roof after rainthey tipped up the tarpaulin and emptied a nights worth of rain over my poor birds!
then the plumber tried to kill my mums quails by spraying them with water from the geyser!
i got so cross
