But I could not beleave it ALL I repeat ALL of the bob whites look like they have embyro's in them , I could even see there little hearts beating (well one had viens and embryo but I coudnt see its heart beat hopefully that was just a fluke) . 20 shipped bob white quail eggs and all over them grew and emybro

. The jumbo browns were 30 embyro's and 20 that I ether coudnt see or were clear so not as good as the bob whites but still nice for shipped eggies. I dont know how to do % so if someone could tell me what the % total 50 of 70 eggs growing embryos that would be awsome .. I cant say enough good stuff about about this Seller , She worked with me , shipped the eggs promptly , the packageing was excellent and hello so many babies growing on day 4 its so awsome. Emvickrey You rock my dear you rock .
 
I am not an expert. I have found that it is what is in the background. Like my white hen hatched a silver once and she was bred to the chocolate drake. We have a chocolate and white hen who we have bred to our chocolate drake, we will see what they have. We had a white drake at one time who mixed with our white hen they had a lavendar baby, a black baby, and then the rest where all whites. Before we hatched all those, I was a firm believer white hatched white......

PS.
Very cute babies Michelle!!

I have 4 more girls on a nest of eggs of at least 10-20 each.

I have no clue how many is under this hen I just know it looks like a slue of them. I know 9 for sure with the egg shells I got out from under her to make room for the babies. I have an order for 10 babies for a guy local to me. After that I will ship you off a few like I promised.

Thank you, Your too kind. On those JB eggs if they look light blue when you candle their clears, no babies. If they look redish they are forming. Thats how I weed out the clears. The bob whites are penned with only 1 pair per pen. The Jb's are 4 and 5 per roo. Probably why you have clears. When the quail I just hatched from different bloodlines grow up i'll separate the hens with the new blood roos.

Thanks for the tip , I was noticeing some sort of coloring diffrence but I couldnt pin it down. Now I know. I will try not to candle again till day ten though , i tend to be an over eger candleler.. its so cool thogh lol
 
Ok quick question. I have only Black Pied Muscovy Ducks. So silly me I thought I could only hatch out Black pied Muscovy ducklings. But to my surprise I see under one of my broody girls she has Black Pied, White & Chocolate. Can this happen. Or is it possible that they have differant genetics in there blood but are Black pied.

I have Swedish ducks, a blue drake over a black hen. They throw blue, black and chocolate (1 out of 10 maybe?) ducklings. I was talking to the guy I got my Aussies off of and he said a blue will occasionally throw a chocolate. Is Pied the same as splash?
