buttons hatching from tux eggs pictures

Put a small bandaid over it, so it doesn't get it caught on anything. My guess is because it was wet, loosened everything up.

Wolly World has them. I have a button I just hatched for a friend of mine that has the same coloring when it was hatched. I'm gonna try to get a picture of it put up on here for ya all to see how it feathers out. It is beautiful, almost a blue/gray color.

I hope it makes it the other one that was not doing good is now mouth breathing I think it will be gone soon darn

Yes I will pictures tomorrow, it hard to describe but it is the gray but has the blue coloring to it. Not sure if its male or female but I can say one beautiful bird. I was never interested in the buttons till I hatched these ones, but the color is just wonderful. I told my hubby they would make a beautiful inside/outside aviary in the wall next to the fireplace, on both sides. I got told I am really pushing it. Before ya all think I'm crazy just think you have heated birds all year that enjoy inside and out and you can set up a habitat for them. Especially this color.

Wow cool idea

 

[shelleyd2008]

Sounds like a smoky, bigk. They are a mix of silver and blueface, and another color as well (I think...possibly cinnamon?). They are extremely hard to come by, from what I've heard. I haven't had any hatch, even with all the colors I hatch from mine! Maybe I'll put a cinnamon blueface with a silver? I have plenty of each!

I'm sorry about the one that's mouthbreathing....sounds like the end is coming soon *sigh* tell that dark grey to keep it's internals IN! LOL!
