I got terribly overexcited about finally getting the tibetan tuxedo I wanted when my first chick hatched - now I'm doubting myself!
I'm thinking wild type at the top, tibetan tuxedo at the bottom. Have I got that right?

These are my first chicks of any colour so I'm learning as I go! And please excuse the awful setup - this is the hurredly thrown-together incubator/brooder, I'm setting up a separate brooder tomorrow now I've been able to get a bit more kit. Although the hatching is done, I'm pretty sure - had a power outage earlier and lost the chick that pipped last night, and there are only two more with chicks in (just re-candled) and I can't see any movement at all in them. I'm gutted but I'm still thrilled to have managed to get these two, although I did have to break the top one out of its shell in the end!
