2 albino there for sure, the darkest of the 3 might be a blonde, look at the eyes, if they are red then that's another albino. Very luck to get 3 from 11, I have got 1 from 29 and I'm not sure it's eating so might not live.

looks good, natural.

Yeah artificial grass, keeps the place clean and tidy, we get a lot of rain over here and I didn't want a mucky aviary. I clean the poop off with an ice scraper into a dust pan and then wash it down with a poultry disinfectant in a pressure sprayer.

I don't keep the birds at home, they are on a small plot about 5 minutes drive. Do you let them hatch and remove them before they leave the nest after a day or 2? How long do you keep them under a heat source in the brooder and when do you introduce water? I'm in Ireland so its colder here than...
