I just opened the box long enough to snap a pic. Im not sure if there are one, or two. I think so far just one. Im so excited....ive waited, and wanted this for so long.
The mom is pure white. Dad is visual white face pearl....baby is yellow?? Help with genetic here @Monica. If mom is lutino, would this be possible lutino?

I see two chicks in the picture.

If only mom is a lutino, then you will not get any Ino chicks. Dad must be a carrier.


Congrats! :)

You see 2? I couldnt tell 1 or 2. I wondered if there were 2, but didnt want to disturb them too much to look again. Maybe ill peek tomorrow.
So, a white face pearl could be lutino split? Wow....genetics are crazy. Thank you sweetie!

I checked this morning, and there is actually just one. There are 6 eggs left, and she only laid 7. Baby is doing great, and i should have another hatch sometime today. Fingers crossed!!

I definitely see two in that picture... a dry, fluffy one... and a newborn with wet down feathers... but you can't see the head of.

Odd if chicks have yellow down when parents are white.... can you share pictures of the parents again? And any chance that the mother may have played hanky panky with any yellow males?

Mom is Blanca, looks lIke an albino, even though there are no albino tiels. She is solid white with pink eyes. Dad is white face pearl,....I got them from the same breeder, at the same time and they've always been bonded. The breeder mostly breeds lutinos. I got Dianthus my first lutino from him. My pics are on my phone which is dead. I'll post pics when it charges.

They grow quick!
Are the other eggs fertile? Sorry if I asked before, I don´t remember.
