She ended up joining another nest of four normal owls babies that are about the same age as her. I peaked in the nest because I could not find her and she is nestled right in the middle of them.
awww that is so cute!!!, i would have melted into much if i seen that. poor bird must have been so lonely. what a cute little story.

The parents look normal. The dad is a split and the mom is normal.
I will be keeping her. In time, I will pair her with an unrelated split male that I have.

Per Sally's genetics post, that would then give me:

Male normal split + Female mutation gives you
mutation males 50%
normal split males 50%
mutation females 50%
normal females 50%

dont you mean 25% chance......or do you mean half of males and females will be mutation and half will be normal
