What a beautiful pied peachick! Congratulations!

Thanks guys,
I'm not sure why/how I got a Pied Peachick out of 2 parents that have no white visible on them anywhere, but I am SO not complaining, lol. I've always wanted Pied Peafowl. Now if the other egg would just hurry up and start zipping, maybe a twin will hatch. Actually I don't even care what it hatches out as, I just want it to be healthy/strong like the 1st one is

The first white chicks I ever hatched were from parents with no visible white on them either.

Look what hatched for me this AM

... Which is technically only day 26 1/2... I just put these 2 eggs into lockdown yesterday afternoon when I had noticed one egg was pipped externally and when I candled I could see the other egg had pipped internally.


Interesting feathers on this little Peachick considering that both parents are assumed to be pure IBs, but obviously not, lol

His buddy in the other Peafowl egg behind him is taking it's time. It's been pipped like that since about 7:30AM (it's almost noon now)... I can see that it's breathing but it has not spun in the egg at all or started zipping

There are Turkey poults that have been zipping and hatching like popcorn right behind these guys, further back in the tray.. and the humidity is 78%ish.

Congrats Peeps!!!!!
My charcoal pair has no white on them either and I got pure white, pied, charcoal and IB out of them LOL I was told the charcoal peacock is split to silver pied and the mother is also split to pied but they do not show it at all.

Patch is out.. i woke up at 3am and he still hadnot made any progrees as he had pipped right in the center of the patch and i just felt he would not get out so i helped.. he had already absorbed the yoke so i did the right thing

Yay! Congrats! I didn't realize we had eggs cookin' on the same schedule. What day of incubation did this lil guy hatch on?
By now that baby's all fluffed and dried, so where's the recent pics!?!?! Any other action on the other eggs???
