First try incubating

[Naverretia]

Never incubated before, but we managed to get 6 keets so far. All our adult birds are pearl grey, so I was beyond excited to get a little lavender! It seems like there are two others that are much lighter colored though, I wonder if anyone knows whether they will be pearl grey as well? Sorry it's a bit blurry, they aren't the best at holding still. Just wanted to show off a bit

Well done on a successful hatch.

The lighter colored ones may be Browns.

Sorry, back at it again! I try taking pictures, but they are always blurry, so I tried putting up a video instead. My whitish one does have little white spots on her feathers, so she isn't actually white, is that something like buff? And are the lighter ones brown do you think? I can't wait to get them some good males! The white and at least one brown are female, the rest haven't talked much lol.

Sorry it's still blurry, this is how it looks at 4 weeks. It has small brown stripes on the head, the feathers coming in are pretty white.

White? Buff? Doesn't look lavender in that pic

In case anyone is curious, after some research I am fairly sure that the light brown ones are actually lavender. The white one is actually going to stay mostly white, can't wait to see how they look!

The bluish gray one is a Lavender. The light brown ones are not Lavenders.

Oh cool thank you! I've been scouring breeder websites and just found keet pictures that looked very similar. The whitish one is still pretty white so I'm guessing it will darken.

It is light colored enough that it may be a Lite Lavender.

White wings, white face, white belly...was there something about the stripes for pieds?

Probably is a pied.
