Awesome,I do like tricolours although I've only kept Ruthvens,I suppose with your experience of breeding them you have a 100% hatchrate Question

Actually No, the first clutch of 6 she laid, not in the lovely nest box but behind it on the heatmat, so when i went out they had all dessicated. The double clutch only one hatched. Second year out of those laid I got 3, and last year I had none hatch the incubator had problems at final stage of development and babies died I cut eggs carefully to try and help but they were dead already! So this year I hope to get it right!!

It's very frustrating when they ignore the egg box and dump the eggs somewhere completely unsuitable,believe me I know anyway do you have any other tricolours.

What's the going rate for these, or shouldn't I ask?

incubation time ranges from 48-63 days, mine seem to hatch around 53-55 days at 82 degrees F
