New Zeb babies today!

Post by L in Ontario » Sun Nov 01, 2009 1:52 pm

The parents are a white male and a fawn split to white hen (one I bred earlier this year).

These three chicks hatched earlier this morning - yay! Looks like 2 will be fawn and one will be white, just going by the colour of their fuzz and the lack of mouth markings on the top chick with it's mouth open.

To me there is nothing cuter than white zebra hatchlings :D They remind me of when I was a child playing dress up in my mother's white feathered boas :D

Two more hatched today. I think these new ones are fawns as well. I was hoping for more whites!
