95% hatch rate
I managed to save 4, of the 8, chicken eggs that was sent to me. * eggs were sent, 2 were not fertile and 1 died inside the shell at day 19. One was able to pip its way out of the shell but died 8 hours later. The other 4 eggs had live chicks inside as I could hear them pipping on the shell and chirping. If you place the egg on your ear and hear pipping and chirping then they are alive and trying to get out. I heard this and I waited another eight hours did not see anything come through the egg, not even a small pip hole. I waited another 8 hours and on just one there was a small pip hole with no change in the size. I could hear the 4 chicks chirping but they stopped peaking at the inside. I waited another 4 hours, the next day and still no change in a break through. I could hear chirping in two eggs now and the peaking had all stopped. I started picking away at the one with the hole so the chick would breath. I candled the other three and saw no movement and proceeded an emergency c-section chicken birth. I broke the eggs on the correct side where the beak would be via the candling so they could breath. When I broke through, they stared out at me and started chirping. I placed the ones that had not absorbed all the egg yolk back in the incubator. since I knew they were now safe. I placed the ones that was still attached to the egg back in the incubator and closed it up. I waited 24 hours and checked again and found all 4 to still be alive, dry, chirping and running around. After the 3rd day, I placed all four in their brooder. after 2 weeks I placed them all in a bigger brooder and after 4 weeks, I placed the all in yet a bigger brooder. They are all now 6 weeks old and waiting for the weather to get warmer to go outside in their new home. I am new at all this but, I used my common sense after the first one died and I went with my gut feeling and took matters into my own mind and rescued them all from their shell of doom. I have since learned that chicks that are not strong enough to break through an egg shell might be because of the what the egg layer is fed or how they are treated. Maybe to much stress in their life? IDK but on day 19 if you place the egg against your ear and hear chirps or pipping but see no break through then help them out. Make sure to allow them to absorbed the egg yolk. Play it by ear and if they seem to be energized enough to go to the brooder then move them. I believe the first one died because I did what they said to do on the internet and left him in the incubator for three days and I didn't trust my own instinct which was get him out and give him water and food. Edit: I ordered 6 eggs again and 8 was sent. Two was not fertile. one died in the shell and five chicks hatched. They are all healthy baby chicks, eating just fine and drinking. I dont know what it is about fertile eggs from this vendor but, all the ones I have received seem to be smarter than normal and develop and grow to be mature chicks or maybe its just me and the way I treat my baby chicks. I handle mine a lot and am always interacting with them so, maybe that is the key to a healthy chick. I am always attentive to there needs and I come when they chirp loud so, there know that I am there.

So Disappointed 😞
Very disappointed,1 out of 6 hatched I Incubate my eggs all the time with a real good hatching rate, the reason I chose to buy these egg is to have hopefully a different breed of chicks/chicken If you raise chicks, then you know, if you only have one, there could be problems with stress, sickness, depression and so on. So I took a chance and put the one chick In a pen with a heat light with my other chicks that are two months old and all I can do is hope for the best. Yes, I did candle my eggs. The last time i candled was 23 days and there was nothing inside. Not fertile at all, so needless to says I won't buy eggs again from any place. It is a gamble, no Guarantee that any will hatch.I am grateful that I did get one,But what would have been extremely happy to get 2 or 3 Good luck for all of you That have bought eggs not just from here from other places as well.

Some made it as expected
We purchased 12 out of the 12th 15 arrived. All were unharmed and perfectly packaged. We incubated three of them hatched right away on day 19. As you can see from the other pictures, these are the other ones that were fertile clearly and simply passed away in the egg. I believe this place to be a good place to get fertile eggs. You really don't have a guarantee because they're chickens, but they provided us. They promised they would and at least three hatched for us. Good luck in the future everyone

Not fertilized and poor quality!
These are not fertile chicken eggs. After 30 days, no chicks hatched, so when we broke them open, they were all rotten from the inside, meaning none of them were fertilized.

1/12 hatched
I got 2 orders of 6 eggs . Both ordered same date. First 6 arrived in 4 days, second 6 arrived in 7 days (from order date). The first package arrived well packed. Second shipment, not so much but still all 12 eggs arrived Un cracked! Fast forward to post incubation. Only one egg hatched, on day 21. Started piping at 4am process was complete by 7pm fully hatched. Now chick is about 4 weeks old and doing great. Went and bought some day olds a few days after mine hatched so it wouldn’t be alone. Honest review, fun project to incubate with the family and watch grow. Would maybe buy again but 1 out of 12 eggs was a huge disappointment.

Probably USPS fault
Came with 7 eggs. They were packed securely, one was broken and it smelled terrible. I ended up having to rinse the eggs and probably washed off part of the bloom. 3 of the 6 hatched. One had a deformed wing and didn't make it. The 2 I have are sweet. Poor hatch rate but with a barnyard mix you get what you get. It was my first mail order egg experience and they came from Texas to Florida. I would buy local next time and pick up not ship if possible. They hatched August 15th. The picture is from November. The hen hasn't started laying yet as of December 30th.

Great babies
I hatched two little babies out of six and for shipping eggs that’s a pretty nice turnover, my one died just several days ago at six weeks old from an unknown illness and my other ashara is also currently suffering but is hopefully on the mend, great babies though I was lucky

Not a happy camper
purchased 6 hatching eggs from you, and only 2 hatched. Upon inspection, the remaining 4 eggs appear to have been infertile. I put in a great deal of care and effort during incubation, and I’m quite disappointed with the outcome. I wanted to bring this to your attention and ask if you offer any kind of guarantee or partial refund for infertile eggs. I understand not every egg will hatch, but a fertility rate this low is concerning. Looking forward to hearing from you.
