I've set five eggs I bought from a breeder. Fingers crossed! They're from a pen that produces IB, IB Blackshoulder, white eye, and opal.

What parent birds produce that combo?

What parent birds produce that combo?

According to the breeder, she has some IBs, some IBBSs, and some IB white-eyes, and some opals, I believe. I asked and her pen has produced 5 opals so far this year. So while I don't have my hopes up for opals, it could happen

Oh, and I forgot white. She also has white, so I could hatch white, too.

Coral blue?

Coral blue?

It's basically royal purple diluted with lavender.

That sounds like quite the pen...I wonder why they aren't separated for breeding?

Not sure - they might be free ranging.

Keets have a bad habit of eating the beaks off of peachicks, be careful.
