    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

That sucks...maybe you should question the male's genetics, lol. (Maybe she got a late night visitor one night while he was out?)

At least you can log this one as evidence that one can breed a visual to a het and not produce visuals.

That might be the case ;) Maybe a male normal found its way into my house and snuck in while the pied was out shopping :rolleyes:

Well, I have a clutch from albino to het...no albinos in 4 eggs. Now I don't feel so bad.

We can feel bad together :)
 
hey kris, how many babies u get last year from this mother including pieds and hets...just wondering if u got super bad odds or if the genectics are going to even out over two years or three...sorry for bad odds, u will make it up next year and hit odds like me on my pied clutch...

ok,, not bad,, nine eggs, three pieds, one short or not of 50%, but six hets and half of six is three which u got with the math, so to me it balanced out, so next year u should hit better odds again for sure if u breed parents again or try another pied male same female to see what happens,, its all a gamble on how the genes hits and averages...good luck next season, hope u crush odds then!!!!
 
Bummer, my buddy hit 2.1 pieds on a 5 egg clutch from het x het..It's crazy how you didn't get 1..You'll knock 'em out the park next year
 
dude...at least you got females...I had from pied x het pied this year 3.1 Hets born...same as you...she has produced pieds in the past...just not this year...lol....odds gods!!!!!!
 
Ok so I feel a little better with my 2nd pied clutch, 3.3 pieds, 2.0 het pieds :D. Odds of this clutch even out the last clutch (which is what I keep telling myself lol). They just had their first shed...first pic males, second pic females (except the het).
