OK...Tetra Tint question....

[NYRIR]

What a cutie...she looks like she knows she was naughty!

Is that the one you said previously has spots?

Yes, she has two black spots on her back, and a few on top of her head. There is even one black spot on her beak!

Has she had those right along? Mine are completely white...I will try to post pics tomorrow but the only cam I have access to is my sons DS...sad,huh?

My tetras are feathering out and they are still very white. They look like the white rocks that I had a couple years ago, except they are not nearly as heavy.

Do you think that the one with the spots and the more off-white coloring could be a roo? Looks kinda red in the wattles to me. But it could also be the picture. Does anyone know if they are sex-linked by color or by feathers? Just a though

I to bought tetra tints from TSC and in my search for pictures of these little buggers I came across Tetra americana web site. Could the tetra amber be Tetra Tints?

 

[hennyannie]

I keep hoping someone from that TSC hatchery will come across this web site!lol At any rate I can hardly wait for the next couple of months to come so that we can get a better idea of what they will grow up to be. Who ever has the oldest ones keep us posted. Mine are only just starting to feather out. Also is the jury still out on the color of their eggs. I have read on the forum that they lay white, then I saw someone say brown. Can you tell by ear color at this age?

I spent hours looking this up a couple weeks ago, and I found that tetra tints are like California whites but lay brown eggs. They look exactly the same as chicks. They even both have the grey/black spots on some of them.

Mine have wing feathers and are starting to get feathers on their backs and chest. They look more off white than white. They look like the one that yoie has posted(mine have no spots) and I agree with her they are going to be great flyers. Hoping that the weather changes here so I can get the coop and run finished so they can get out of the box in my garage. I may have to build an addition on the box.
