By purchasing this listing you are identifying that you have read this entire listing to the bottom and accept the risks associated with buying hatching eggs.

If you want more eggs check out our 10+2 listing rather than ordering 2 of this listing. It will save you on shipping. Be advised if you order 2 of this 6+ listing you will be charged for shipping twice...

THERE ARE NO COLOR REQUESTS - I have many orders to fill and I try to give everyone a good variety but I am at the behest of what the hens give me on any given day. If you want all dark eggs THIS IS NOT THE LISTING TO ORDER. All Dark eggs are another listing and a lot more money. If I have dark eggs that are not otherwise committed they will be evenly distributed among the orders for the day. ANY EGG FROM MY FLOCK COULD HATCH A CHICK THAT LAYS A DARK EGG BECAUSE THIS IS MOSTLY A BACK CROSSED FLOCK OF MULTIGENERATIONAL OLIVE EGGERS - except for a couple BLUE genetic roosters (one Crested Cream Legbar one Whiting True Blue) all my roosters have hatched form dark eggs and I have about 30 roosters - most of these have very heavy Marans influence.

I have roughly 175 birds at any given time and about 3 hen to one rooster ratio. Breeds of hens include Americana (easter eggers), Chocolate Orpington, Wheaten Marans, Blue, Black and Splash Marans, Welsummers, multigenerational olive eggers (one single hen of which is a frizzle Legbar OE hen), Whiting True Blue, and Crested Cream Legbar - just to name a few. All these birds run together so you will truly get a rainbow of breeds and egg color from this order. I tend to lean heavily towards keeping birds that have feathered legs (indicating Marans genetics) and pea combs (indicating they inherited a blue gene) when combined with my Marans and Marans cross male genetics the color possibilities are endless and range from deep green to chocolate brown to grey colored eggs! Shades of brown, rose, and a coffee colored brown are also common. It is possible to get a pure bred Marans bird from the dark eggs as well. Because of the Marans genetics some of these birds may have feathered shanks (legs) - it is NOT because there is necessarily a bantam influence but because the site of that particular bird was likely our show quality blue copper Marans rooster.

I have many Marans roosters so some of the other eggs will have the Marans dark egg gene influence. I have some fibro / zombie genetics in the flock as well so chicks hatched may exhibit those characteristics. Dark eggs can sell ALONE for $10 and up per egg on and upwards of $30+ for purebred Marans with dark egg genetics and you will be getting these genetics through this listing although the likelihood of pure bred is about 50%... I breed for egg color alone and do not separate my birds, however, the purebred birds in my flock come from an established SOP BBS Marans breeder.

These are FRESH and hatchable eggs

My flock is certified NPIP as well as AI free as recorded with the Missouri branch of the National Poultry Improvement Program and the United States Department of Agriculture. Due to this you must have a PHYSICAL ADDRESS - I cannot ship to PO Boxes per NPIP regulations... they need to know the actual physical location of YOUR flock for their records. Please check that has your physical address on file for me to ship to otherwise your shipment may be delayed - I will cancel any delayed shipments so as not to impact my seller status.

It is also worth noting I do not breed rude and nasty roosters. All my males are friendly and sweet. Most follow is around like puppies. That is not to say that I guarantee any males resulting from your hatch will not be mean - but I do strive to only breed birds with sweet personalities. I have small children so any birds with attitudes are quickly removed from our flock.

I do have a handful of Bantam Wyandotte mixed hens but do not have ANY bantam roosters so any chick hatching from a smaller bantam sized egg with be at least 75% large fowl genetics and still have all the potential to lay color.

I WILL NOT MARK THE BOX FRAGILE OR 'LIVE EMBRYOS' UNLESS YOU ASK ME TO - there is mixed feelings about how notes like that effect how the boxes are handled. I do not mark boxes unless you tell me too - its your risk.

If you prefer eggs packaged in a particular manner I do my best to accommodate requests - please indicate that at checkout in the area called "buyers notes". I do not use foam shippers - one of the reasons my shipping rates are more reasonable. The method I use has been unsuccessful less than 10 times in 630 shipments and eggs were broken due to handling by carriers or due to excessive cold while in shipment - neither of which I can control.

SHIPPING INFORMATION - PLEASE READ BEFORE YOU ORDER ESPECIALLY IF OUTSIDE OF CONTINENTAL USA

ARE YOU IN ALASKA OR HAWAII?I SHIP TO BOTH! Alaska residents must purchase NEXT DAY AIR in order for eggs to arrive in a timely manner ($65) - Hawaii can choose to send via USPS with normal regional rates but shipping time can be variable and may effect hatchability of eggs. Also - Please contact me before ordering as those states require additional permitting as well and I will need you to know that that may extend my handling time.

WE CANNOT SHIP TO PUERTO RICO

Eggs ship through UPS as our preferred shipper but you can choose to send with which ever carrier you prefer. You will always get a tracking number attached to your order. You have made it this far in the listing so I bet you are considering ordering - YAY! It is worth mentioning a few things about shipping eggs - there is a CAVEAT - Shipping eggs is the hardest thing we do to a living embryo and as a shipper I cannot control the handling, temperature or duration of the trip once they leave my hands. Some eggs will not recover from shipping even if they arrive intact and it can and will effect the fertility rate / hatchability of the eggs. If these are not risks you are willing to accept please DO NOT ORDER. THE WEATHER is especially hard on the eggs as they can get too hot or too cold in transit. Please keep in mind the limitations of the eggs as well as their handlers when you consider buying shipped eggs. Use common sense. Fall and Spring are the best times to ship eggs in most areas. Egg production is decreasing in the fall so keep in mind the "best" colors might be harder for me to send although I do my best to ensure that a beautiful mix is included in every box. If a heat wave or freak arctic blast rolls through the country your eggs will NOT be replaced due to weather issues. the USPS (only USPS) will allow you pick up in office but you have to tell me to put your phone number on the box and authorize me to instruct them to call you. AGAIN I recommend UPS. I offer a flat rate and RECOMMEND UPS - it can be the difference between hatchable eggs or not. RETURNS ARE NOT ACCEPTED AND REFUNDS ARE NOT GIVEN ON PACKAGES THAT ARE NOT DELIVERED IN A TIMELY MANNER. There are no promises on transit times from any carrier. Individuals that file for a refund because the transit time was lengthy WILL BE REPORTED TO . If this could be an issue please do not order - buy your eggs locally. Consider your location. It is a risk of shipping a perishable item. A risk YOU take and assume by ordering. If the eggs are not viable (outside of 10 days the integrity of the egg declines) PLEASE CONTACT ME.

I try to include extras in every box - provided there is room to add them and they are available.

Orders placed after Thursday afternoon may be shipped the following Monday (to avoid eggs being left at the Post Office over the weekend - depends on the weather, time of year, and other variables.) Many of the warehouses are not heated / cooled and this can effect the hatchability of the egg. I reserve the right to ship ANY DAY OF THE WEEK during high volume times of year... rest assured if the eggs go into ship on a Saturday that those eggs were laid THAT DAY and I am only doing that to keep up with orders... they will still be well within the 10 day old for best results time frame even if they sit on Sunday... but if I wait to ship them they will still be possible 48 hours old on Monday AND not get to you until later in the week.

PLEASE LEAVE response WHEN EGGS ARRIVE, NOT WHEN THEY HATCH.

AGAIN - SHIPPING EGGS CAN BE RISKY, PLEASE DO NOT offer IF YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE RISK BE IT MISHANDLING / WEATHER / FREEZE / HEAT / DELAYS / HATCH FAILURES all of which affect how well the eggs hatch

Due to the sensitive and fragile nature of hatching eggs (rough handling, harsh temperatures, humidity, X-ray etc.) while enroute we are not able to guarantee a hatch rate. Always allow eggs to sit for 24 hours (large end up) at room temperature. This helps to increase hatching success by letting the air cell settle into place again. During this time bring your incubator (empty) up to temp and get the humidity where you want it. Some folks prefer to incubate shipped eggs in cartons rather than manually or mechanically turning them to help with getting any aircells that may have become unattached during transit to be fixed in place... this is a preference among some people and only a suggestion.

If you suspect an egg may have frozen in transit and you want to try to hatch it here is a method you can use - even cracked eggs can be attempted - let eggs slowly come up to room temperature - dry eggs thoroughly and use (melted) candle wax to seal any cracks on the dry egg by running it down the length of the crack. Place in the incubator and proceed but make sure to candle on day 10 and discard any undeveloped eggs so you don't have an egg rotting in the incubator. You will need a powerful egg candler to candle the darkest eggs. The darkest eggs are difficult to hatch on a good day. We recommend dry incubation methods but you know your climate and equipment better than we would ;) Please do your research on how to have the most success in your area with incubation!

Please leave response on how eggs were packed - notnecessarilythe condition of the shipment. I have had eggs arrive in boxes completely SMASHED by USPS that still had eggs successfully incubate in the shipment. I will consider replacing eggs on a case by case basis. I do require pictures if you havereceivedeggs that arrive cracked / smashed /compromised/ frozen. Please take a photo of the box when it arrives even if you think it looks ok. The insurance claims require photos to get a refund. I want you to be successful but not at my expense. There are a lot of variables out of my control. If a shipment is unsuccessful I usually will volunteer to replace eggs (if they are available - sometimes to keep things timely I will ship eggs that are not as colorful as the original shipment but rest assured that the chicks that hatch from those eggs can and will lay color. None of my roosters are not rainbow layers) if the purchaser will cover the shipping. Order at your own risk. NO REFUNDS WILL BE GIVEN for unsuccessful hatches or shipments mishandled by either institution. The shippers generally will not pay out on claims regarding mishandled or smashed containers on shipped eggs so know that if you request a refund due to circumstances outside of my control like shipping delays from USPS you are basically taking that money out of my families pocket. I cannot be responsible for your eggs once they leave my possession.

PLEASE LEAVE response WHEN EGGS ARRIVE AND BASED ON HOW THE ARE PACKED AND HOW QUICKLY / WELL THEY SHIPPED - NOT WHEN THEY HATCH - I CANNOT BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR EGGS THAT DO NOT HATCH - TOO MANY VARIABLES OUTSIDE OF MY CONTROL

AGAIN - SHIPPING EGGS CAN BE RISKY, PLEASE DO NOT offer IF YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE RISK
