Even some of the supers I'm seeing lately don't look as nice as a selectively bred quality "normal" pastel.

    I'm doing the same, and I'm one who is willing to pay more for a Grade A animal.

    The pastel is still chillin in the egg but one of the normals came out. He/she still has some yolk it hasn't absorbed though. I weighed it quick before I put it in it's new home, 78grams. I have it on moist paper towels for now. How long does it usually take until they absorb all of it?

    Yeah, they're pretty nasty looking but they were attached to 2 of the other eggs so I wasn't going to cut them off and risk losing the good ones.

    All the babies are out now and I have pics. It's really hard to get decent pictures of them since they're still so shiny everything reflects off of them.
