Hey!,..that's a really cool aberrant tricolor that came out of that egg!....CONGRATULATIONS!!



I had a VERY similar looking egg situation this year too. The egg began to mold and had a weird very hard lump on the end very early on for some weird reason. Well, as time went on I started thinking more and more that the egg was indeed still viable. It was still nice and firm, and didn't have the bad smell that bad eggs typically have at the later stages of incubation either.



My "motto" has always been,....."if there's any doubt,don't throw it out"..LOL!



The hatchling pipped and was totally normal in every respect.



Glad you didn't toss that one, and I'm SURE you are too!
