    Effects of temps in the 80s on hatching eggs?

    I ship Salmon Faverolls fertile eggs all over the country by USPS. Some made it at 3 days some 10 days and some dissapered from tracking altogether. Stalled and never moved agian. I put stickers all over my USPS PRIORTY MAIL box. If your don't put Fertile/fragile eggs on the box buyers get mad...

    Does white spot with circle mean fertile

    The hens will be fertile for 2 weeks. Lost my beautiful roster to frost bite of the comb and I guess the hens thought it was something to eat. Anyway I had just read about the hens being fertile for two weeks, I collected 11 eggs and hatched them after the dad was deceased for 12 days.

    New at incubation

    All 6 of my Salmon Faverolls have saddles/aprons on. The male Salmon is so much bigger than the ladies even though he is a gentleman he hurts their top feathers. I have hatched many from this flock and check fertility weekly with bulls eyes galore. I actually sell the fertile eggs on Ebay with...

    Received an order of eggs from Ebay seller, poorly packaged and several broken eggs

    Post a picture if you took one on their review site. I would notify the seller and tell them how unprofessional the packing was. That will make buyers beware of this seller. They usually post no refunds when the box leaves their hands and into USPS possession. Ebay has a money back guarantee but...

    Can I ship quail eggs without some kind of license

    We are taxed and the buyer is taxed. I sell 6 Fertile Eggs at a time and I will get a statement at years end. I just put my NPIP number on the box just in case.

    Should I ask for a refund? eBay eggs quality and fertility does NOT look good.

    I sell fertile eggs on ebay. If I have eggs 4 days and older I make breakfast with them. USPS Priority shipping is horrendous on fertile eggs. I have replaced eggs for my buyers because 11 and 14 days in delivery is unacceptable but not my fault. My buyers always come back. Packed like it was a...

    Shipping egg question??

    I sell Salmon Faverolles hatching eggs on Ebay. The allowed actual time for a seller to ship is 2 days. Most will ship the next day if a late order. If morning it's usually that day. (Will usually ship within 2 business days of receiving cleared payment.) USPS priority is 2-5 days. I have seen...

    Shipped hatching eggs viable?

    Shipped eggs are not guaranteed to hatch. Farm eggs are not guaranteed to hatch. No one knows they are fertilized only when they are opened by hatch or cracked open. Eggs can be fertile, I see the bulls eye on the yolk when in my frying pan but they are not fertilized. I ship fertile eggs hoping...

    Should I hatch my shipped eggs upright or on their side?

    Chickens hatch the eggs on their sides. I have seen my chickens sway back and forth to roll them. Smart birds. I always incubate them on their sides if hatching many eggs and need the room upright you get more room.

    Black spots in Rooster's comb

    Lost my rooster this past winter he had the black scabs from frost bite even though I used Vaseline on his comb and legs. He was so gentle with my hens and a gentleman so easy going. I came home from work to find him with his comb and most of the top scalp gone. The hens had a bad habit of...

    Vet put my hen with sour crop on antibiotics… should I/can I also give her monistat?

    So very sorry for your loss. You did your best I also had one with a sour crop a couple years ago and I tried everything I could. She had a very large chunk of straw I pulled out of her mouth when I messaged her crop never saw anything so big I actually had to pull it out of her mouth. She...

    Winterized Run and it STINKS!

    I live in NH where winters are pretty cold and snowy. I also poly wrap my runs which are on both sides of my coop and has walk in doors to both runs with the coop in the center. I leave about one foot from the top of the runs unwrapped for circulation and the chickens use either side they want...

    Vet put my hen with sour crop on antibiotics… should I/can I also give her monistat?

    Yes I use Organic feed maybe 2-3 times a week. They won't eat it after its fermented over 3 days. Very sour taste ( I tried a bit on my finger to find out why but I was right). Very sour. 2 days fermented was their choice it has just a tang to it. It bubbles on top so I know their is probiotics...
