SVART HONA - Fertile Hatching Eggs for Extraordinary Rare Breed Chickens
It is our vision that this breed of chicken can become the ideal backyard free range egg layer for northern North America.We\'d love to see hundreds of thousands of these birds colonize the upper continent.They\'re flighty, good egg layers, tough skinned, and have shown no signs of disease despite the cold wet conditions here.
Our farm is in USDA zone 4 which is similar to the climate in Norway where these birds originate.Our bird have survived nights down to -25F without issues in minimally protected tent \"hoop coops\".
We keep 3 flocks of Svart Hona in SPIRAL BREEDING rotation.Approximately 8-12 Roos and 60-80 Hens at any given time, each flock with its own coop.
Our svarts free range in 3 day rotation so that each flock is separate.Our feed is 100% ORGANIC, fresh ground, grown locally, and acquired by the ton.We keep them fed with a \"meat chicken grower mash\", plus every 3rd day free range, and access to oyster shell.We have a \"only the strong survive\" mentality towards our breeding program.Our birds face heavy predation from weasels, eagles, hawks, fox, opossum, raccoon, and bobcat;We\'re surrounded by thousands of acres of state forest and we have no fencing. They also are exposed to cornishX meaties, ducks, guineas, geese; and the wild.At any sign of weakness, injury, or disease we cull. Every spring we hatch to refresh our flock.
We are doing our best to preserve and improve the genetics of this exotic fibromelanistic breed and appreciate your support.
WE HAVE A STEADY SUPPLY BUT RESERVE THE RIGHT TO DELAY SHIPPING TO GET YOU THE BEST EGGSEGGS WILL SHIP WELL PACKED AND INSURED, HOWEVER:LIKE *ANY* MAIL ORDER HATCHING EGG SUPPLIER, WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR WHAT HAPPENS IN TRANSIT
At Mountain Roost, we strive to provide you with high-quality and fertile eggs for successful hatching.
Please understand that hatch rates can vary due to a variety of factors beyond our control once the eggs leave our possession. Although we are unable to guarantee hatch rates, we want to assure you that the eggs we ship are sourced from our robust breeding age hens and roosters, known for their fertility. To maintain the consistent fertility of our eggs, we constantly breed and refresh our flocks using the same eggs we ship. Furthermore, we consistently receive positive response on the successful hatches of our eggs across the country.
If, unfortunately, your eggs fail to develop in your incubator, it is highly likely that this is the result of internal egg damage incurred during shipping, or potentially due to faulty incubation conditions. We understand that this can be disappointing, but we kindly request you to consider these factors before attributing the unsuccessful hatching solely to our eggs.
Your response is genuinely important to us, and we highly appreciate any insights you can provide regarding our communication, packaging, and shipping services. Your response should focus primarily on how well we fulfill our obligations as a seller of hatching eggs, rather than solely relying on your hatch results.
We want to emphasize that once you receive a box of intact eggs, the transaction is considered complete. We kindly ask for your understanding that negative response based solely on unsuccessful hatching is unfair and detrimental to our small family business.
Thank you for your understanding and support. We truly value your business and look forward to the opportunity to serve you again in the future!
