Description: Please read the feedback from my buyers. I don’t ask them to leave feedback — they leave feedback because they chose to. Apparently Covid has driven people into the poultry industry and now there are a LOT of sellers on here who have no idea what they’re doing or what they’re selling, and they do not care. I’ve been raising poultry for almost 20 years. I encourage questions/advice on the hatching process — if you need a little help, or if this is your first time, I would much rather you ask me than just wing it. Hatching is fairly straightforward, and when done correctly, it’s a beautiful thing. It’s also extremely easy to mess up. Although I can’t guarantee fertility — no one can — my fertility track record speaks for itself. I feed my ladies a special diet year-round so that your chicks hatch HEALTHY and will give you years of entertainment, pleasure, and eggs. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE: Buy a Govee thermometer/hygrometer. It is $9.99 on Amazon (link below). This will make your hatching tremendously easier and significantly better. Incubators are notoriously poorly calibrated and they become less accurate with each passing day. If you don’t have a secondary thermometer AND hygrometer — it doesn’t have to be the Govee; it just has to be accurate and reliable — please don’t buy any eggs from me. Paint genetics can be tricky and you are not guaranteed to hatch all paint chicks because of the following: Paint Silkies are produced by breeding a dominant white Silkie to a black Silkie. After that the genetics get complicated as they do not breed 100% true in future matings. Paint Silkies can produce chicks that are paint, white or black. Paint to paint = 50% paint, 25% white, 25% black. Black to paint = 50% paint and 50% black. White to paint = 50% paint and 50% white. Dominant white to black = 100% paint. Many people like to breed their black splits back to their original paints to improve their paints. Paints have problems with skin pigment holes in their feet and eyes. It causes feet to not be totally black, but to have light patches on the bottom of them. It can cause eyes to look yellow instead of black. I have 2 gorgeous paint Roos over dominant white, black, and paint hens. This helps to increase the # of paint chicks as well as maintain quality dark black paint spots. When the chicks hatch, their paint spots grow darker as they get older!!!
