Re: Fischers Clutch - Mystery Solved
Posted by Evelyn on 2/21/06

I feel really, really, STUPID! I realized what I did when
another Blue Masked Pair that I have hatched a baby with
yellow down. I evidently switched eggs and forgot to write
it down. DUH! (The Blue Masked Pair have infertile eggs,
but are great parents, so I allow them to raise foster
babies. To increase my chances at getting the Cobalt Blue
Masked babies, I fostered 4 of their eggs out...2 with the
Med Blue Pair and 2 with the Fischers... They had two left,
but one hatched and died and the other one didn't look as it
was being fed, so it was given to the Fischers also...)

So, that's my story and I'm sticking to it! LOL

Mary, the oldest one is looking like it might be slate :)
