Help in Identification

this guy just hatched a few weeks ago from a baldy breeding. He has never had the dark cloration of the other babies but his orange is really heavy.
Any help woulp be appreciated |
Jeff, it may turn out to be a tang baldy, but at only a couple weeks old only time will tell really. Maybe others that have had bably hatchlings can tell you more from how theirs cahnged with time.

Nice looking orange. Looks like you had some temp fluctuations as well. Those eyelid deformities are pretty pronounce.

It was strange, his hatchmates looked fine.....
|
Chad, I never even looked at the eyes, but they do look very bad.
Jeff, what temp did you incubate at and did you have bad fluc's in temps, the 2nd leo also looks like there is a little something at the top of the eyelid not being formed right. |
room temp went 83-85 no big fluctuations. The second pic is actually just color, his eyes are round and fine.
|
I will say though, these guys hatched out very early
|
Actually the second pic does look like it also has some slight irregularities. There can be considerable temp fluct in a room inside a house. I'd consider getting a hovabator or make your own. Looks like those animals have some nice bloodlines running in them.
|
its not the eye's its the eyelids and it could be the pic on the second one but it looks like there is a crease on one eyelid at the center that shouldn't be there and the other looks very "narrow"
How long did it take them to hatch? And Id really really go with Chad's suggestions and get an incubator and a thermostat, it will save you from having incubator deformities and be so worth it long term. You can even build a decent incubator fairly inexpensively, let us know if you need any help with that, there are a lot of people where who have built them. |
Thanks for the help guys. I have a couple Hovas that I htach chicks with. I just didn't think I needed them.
I have a digitherm that records peaks and lows. The temps varied between 83.4 and 86.4 for the duration, but never more than two degrees per day. If I remember they hatched @ 26 days. |
