    Pin X Pastel odd ball

    So I have a clutch of 5 eggs from a pin X pastel. 3 hatched out, 2 were dead in the egg. The 2 that died were a normal and a very pretty pastel. I am left with 2 lemon blast and what I thought was a pastel. When it was in the egg all you could really see was the faded head and a little pattern. The pics aren't the best, my friend took him, I'm in Japan until December so I only have the pics he sends me. What do you guys think it is?

    I guess he's a pastel? He is pretty wacky, though.

    ps: congrats on still getting a couple of lemon blasts out of all that.

    Re: Pin X Pastel odd ball

    Did you have any problems with the incubator while the eggs where in there?

    No a problem with the incubator, the guy that hatched them for me had them at 83 the whole time. I wasn't a fan of that at all but I didn't find out until the day came that they were supposed to hatch.

    83 seems low, but it looks like they still developed. (except the two), the that can happen at 89* How many days did they go for?

    83 is way low. I'm in Japan on deployment, the eggs were laid just a few days after I got here. I didn't know they were being cooked at 83 until around day 50. The eggs were finally cut on day 83. The normal was just dead in the egg, nothing showing any cause of death. The pastel died of a twisted umbilical which I believe had the eggs been cut sooner could have been avoided.
