How old are they and how much do you want each?

Howdy! I think this batch is about 6 months and I'm asking $50 each for the paints. I have 3 that I will hopefully be bringing. I also hope to bring some blacks, whites, blues, and maybe a partridge or two. They will be $10 each.

Hi! That's awesome. I'm hoping to come. What I'm really looking for is a white, but I'd love to see the paints too. I've never seen one IRL.
 
Hi everybody,

I am very happy to say that I got my incubator today and have been testing it try to get the right temps and to see if it is stable, well we had a question and that question was, What do you keep your humidity at during incubating and hatching paint eggs? Right now we have it at a stable temp. of 98.5 and humidity at 53% is this correct temp.?

Thanks,

Happy-Hens
 
Temp should be 99.5. I leave my humidity much lower during incubation only going up to 50% or so during lockdown, but I am not sure what works for everyone else. Oh I don't usually hatch paint eggs unless they are for Judy. I have my own personal hatching guide on my website if you want to check it out. I have fantastic results here using the same guide.

Congrats on the incubator and happy hatching.

Here's a spot on one of the babies. My lighting is bad in here right now so it's hard to see their spots, but all the paints of course have spots.

There are 4 that are seven weeks, and 5 that are 2 weeks. There are two black with possible split to paint, seven paint, all from Elite Silkies, who btw is a beautiful sweet lady and I really wish I'd've had more time to spend with her. However, there was a storm moving in and I was hoping to beat it back (no, I didn't, I got caught in it.
