Their are 2 basic color types one from the white backed type and the black backed type. One blue color with chocolate spots and the other white with chocolate spots. They can sometimes vary within in the types with lighter shades. the eggs have a larger end going down to a pointer end usually 38mm by 27mm in diameter at the fattest end. Kind regards Birdman 777

The magpie is a common bird, seen in parks and suburban gardens across many parts of Australia. It is easily recognised:

  • its head, belly and tail tip are all black
  • there are splashes of white on its wings, its lower back and tail, and the back of its head
  • its beak is blue-grey in colour
  • its legs are black
  • its eyes are brown.

The magpie's lack of shyness has made it popular with suburban gardeners and farmers both for its carolling song, and its appetite for insect pests

we have raised a Australian magpie since she was a tiny baby unable too fly, so we took care off her, her family lived outside in our garden, and when she was old enough she starting mixing with them, and they accepted her, but she never left our garden as her wings were clipped, then as she got older we let her wings grow and she would fly off with them all and stay away all day, but would come home at nite too be fed and go sleep on her perch, now the nesting season has started and shes been chased away by the older magpies, shes nearly 2 so classed as an adolesant bird, and she wont be allwed back till shes 3 yrs old, what I would like too know is do you think she can survive now on her own in the wild.

They are naked babies with black beaks and black eyes with very little feather or even down cover when they're first hatched. The down and black and white feathers start to grow a couple weeks after they hatch.
