Possible Guinea Eggs in "Quail" Batch?

[Cheyen]

Well now this is just odd. Archie is starting to dry and fluff up, but he's not looking like any pictures of chukar chicks or guinea keets I've seen yet. I'll try and get a picture of him when he's fully fluffed.

wow it is a Velociraptor! Remember guineas come in all kinds of colors. We need pictures!!

Drum roll, please?

Here he is.... the one, the only.... Archie!

He's probably the tiniest thing I've ever hatched. He kept wandering off when I tried to take his picture, so I had to improvise.



He's laying right in front of the window.... mmm toasty.



Poor thing has trouble getting traction on the table. Especially in his little booties.



Here he is again next to the quarter. This picture really shows how little he is.

I'm... still not sure. That's a game bird face. I haven't hatched chukar or any variety of pheasant before... it does look like a quail maybe.

^ these are my chukar babies ^

I'd say you have a chukar!

Thanks, Starkasm!

 

[Starkasm]

[Cheyen]

We have another baby!
