Black chick

Recommended Posts

All, 

     Had this chick come out in my black flight, this is the darkest chick I've ever had. Tail is BB, it's been out 3 days now so must have been fed. 

I haven't noticed any zeb feeding it yet. 

If it survives it will be interesting to see when moulted out. (Probably end up pure white lol)

It is an unusual colour Trevor but that makes it all the more precious. Is its crop full? be a shame to lose it if it wasn't being fed. What colour was the parents?

This weekend I haven't noticed the parents feeding,

Plus I haven't a clue on parents. (What sort of bird keeper am I ) ?

Are you going to hand feed it if it's not getting fed? Or is it starting to eat by itself?

Emmy, 

           No not hand feeding, he must be bring fed as he wouldn't survive the day. 

He's been out 4 days so I'll leave alone. 

Thanks for asking Emmy,

Trevor ?

Hi Trevor,

He's very dark, and gorgeous.

Will be a stunner once he has coloured up:)

Do you know who the parents are?

Hope he makes it for you, please post pics once coloured up.

All the Best

That's a real shame, looked like he would have been a real stunner.

Hope the other one makes it, he looks pretty good to (been snooping of face book)

Keep us posted.
