Hi guys,

Thought I had four infertile eggs so I have been ignoring the zeb nest for the last 4 days.

Had a look out of curiosity today and noticed a rather plump and healthy looking chick.

Not sure what he will be as his dad is normal split charcoal and the mother is a silver split (not sure of the recessive) I think her genotype is silver split some form of charcoal but phenotype is completely silver.

Not sure if there are more as the nest is quite packed with feathers and grass...

None the less I am pretty stoked!

That is one good reason for not chucking eggs too soon. Congratulations.
