Aww I hope some of the eggs will hatch and you'll have some healthy tiel babies. Keep us updated (and we'd like some pics too ).

Okay, some pictures of the tiels after I don't know how many years!

As far as I know, dad is all lutino. At least he looks all lutino! I don't know what his parents were. Muffin is a pearl, definitely. Do you think there's any possibility of getting pearl pieds? I think it will be interesting to see what colors the babies turn out to be. I don't know if the eggs are fertile...how can you tell? When I look with a flashlight, I can see something inside. I assume its the yolk, but my flashlight is dim and I can't really tell. I also stopped checking...I don't want to disturb her. Does anyone know what I'm supposed to see if they're fertile? If they're not fertile, what would I see?

Good job, Mama Muffin. And you still look beautiful. So how soon should we know?

[Husky_mom]

dad looks pearl to me... but it could be the light... his wings show a pattern of more bright yellow and them pale yellow

here´s another example


and if mom/dad are pieds or split to pieds there is a chance in getting pieds...
my Maui and Jack are bth visual pieds (not split) and 100% their babies will be pieds...

in your case baby boys are going to be split pearl but if dad is pearl too then you would get visual pearls (boys and girls).. if dad is the only pearl (visual or split) then girls are going to be visual pearls but not boys..... but here mom is also a visual so.....let´s see how many you get....

pearl lutinos


as for fertility checking..... it´s hard if you don´t know what to look for... I tried but didn´t worked out.... anyway mine weren´t fertile LOL

you should see them "clear" just a yellow tint (yolk)... as it matures about day3-5 you should start seeing some veins but you do need a strong flashlight and be in a dark room....(just like if you placed a flashlight under your hand and try to see through it and you see all red...)

too early to tell or unfertile egg (depends on time of candling)


fertile and developing baby


this are the spider web you should see (pic is in blk/wht)


this shows development by day on doves, but it´s pretty much the same
eggs
