[Enthusiast]

If you ever have interest in homozygous celadons, please let me know, I’m happy to send some eggs to you to return the favor.

Thank you

Well, I ended up with six! The 6th hatched early this morning sometime around 5am. No movement or pips from the remaining eggs. Still, 6 isn't bad for my first batch I guess, esp since they were shipped. My luck (or Kiki's luck, I guess, hehe) they're all boys...

Any ideas on colors of them? I assume the yellow one will be mostly white, and I think the one with the dark back might be tuxedo? And the stripey one maybe Italian? 5 of the 6 of them came out of Celadon eggs & I think were advertised as lighter colored birds in general.

The orangey one next to the Italian may be a German pastel and the little yeller on the right may turn silver. Center looks like a Rosetta. I can’t tell much about the far right one.

Excuse me...why are you not telling us when you set quailies?View attachment 2648109

I don't know. Those were last year. The Jumbos were my first shipped eggs. They did better than I expected. Jumbos hatch a little slower though.

First shipped eggs....where’d you get them from????

Hi all! Just stumbled upon this thread.
I currently have 17 Jumbo eggs due to hatch on the 17th and 11 tiny king (button) eggs due to hatch on the 16th.

Welcome!!!! I don’t think we’ve had any Australian hatches in a while......

Is that a faker!?

Yes! Tiny, tiny, bitty, lonely chick.

I thinkk I forgot to hit "'post reply" last night.

I agree, center Rosetta, the yellow on the right looks like it will turn silver, maybe with some red as well. The tux on the far right looks like it might also silver up. If the left most yellow has no sign of color on its head or back, based on the others you got, I think it might silver as well.

Purely Poultry. They have reasonable prices. About the only place that had them in stock at the time.

So far they're all different. One is zipping but may be having some trouble. I'll see how it's doing in another couple of hours.
