Description: I kept her to produce front crested off spring and I was successful in my first try. Only her father was front crested. Crest is a recessive gene and the only way to make more front crest is to mate nest mates together and then put the offspring of that mating back to grandparent who carried the front crest. She flew for me and had a very strong clapping but no effort to tumble other than few tail rides. I lost her nest mate to hawk soon after they had a baby, and she raised the baby on her own.
