That's great news, Deborah! Maybe now these parents will know what they need to do in the future. The baby looks wonderful!

Dante,
Yes, this is the first fawn owl. I've had normal clutches, but not the fawns. :mrgreen:
Michelle,
This is a hen as fawn is sex linked. :wink:
Sally,
Thanks. The male is one of yours!! The hen is from my first clutch of normals.

I wonder if that is the one that I sold to you as a hen? It never sang at my house, so I thought it was a hen, and then after it got to your house, it started singing. I'm always happy to hear when one of my birds has reproduced. He's looking good!

The mother is Egglyntine (from Guardians of Ghoul) and the father is Mew (from Pokemon). Can you tell my kids named them? LOL
