100% hatch rate?So guys all have hatched!
There is 2 golds I believe (one is still wet so hard to see), 3 whites, 2 partridges and 1 blue!
I forgot I put a blue egg under her
I'll get photos later on when they're all dried out.

Thank you! They did a great job. It is very nice! I feel the same but it is nice looking back on them. I'm glad that our photographer is a friend because I feel like most people would be weirded out to take professional pictures of chickens!I paid over $100 for a dozen paint eggs from breeders that are more well known in the show circuit and do well with their paints (I had to wait for their eggs too, they had buyers before me on their wait list). I'd say $25-75 would be reasonable to me for a dozen paint eggs depending on how the parents look and assuming the seller isn't showing and winning a lot in some of the bigger shows (for $75 I'd want the parents to be very very nice looking though). I looked all over to try to get diverse genetics for my flock so I got to see what a lot of people sold there eggs for here in the US. I could be completely clueless though, I'm still quite inexperienced!
Congratulations on the great hatch! I can't wait to see pics of the little ones!
Beautiful pictures and silkies! It's nice you have such pretty photos of your girls to look back on (it's always bittersweet for me looking at pics of my animals that have past but I'd much rather have the pictures than not).

I ordered from hatching eggs from a Show Quality Silkie Breeder in Ohio, they were priced $35.00 for 6 eggs, but she will throw in extras if available.I paid over $100 for a dozen paint eggs from breeders that are more well known in the show circuit and do well with their paints (I had to wait for their eggs too, they had buyers before me on their wait list).
