    People unwilling to sell hatching eggs!

    Thanks for this, I agree, I suppose there are many reasons that people may not want to sell their eggs. I have shipped 7 batches of eggs already this year and spent (or burned) loads of $$$. Hahaha I have had 92 eggs shipped to me and of that I have only 12 live chicks and 8 developing in the...

    People unwilling to sell hatching eggs!

    Thanks! It looks like it’s not very active but I may use it in the future!! That was my exact thought - Id be willing to pay people a lot of money for their eggs - and selling eggs is the least involvement, least risk option for breeders. I would prefer it if I had a rooster and were selling...

    People unwilling to sell hatching eggs!

    I totally understand that. All of the people I have contacted are breeders, who keep males and advertise chicks. I believe in my area people won’t sell eggs because they “can’t make as much $$$ on eggs.” Only one person has actually said that, so I’m not sure about the others, which now I’m...

    I’m not in Ohio, but used to live in that neck of the woods! I think I would have had better luck finding people out there willing to sell eggs! Thank you for the suggestion!

    People unwilling to sell hatching eggs!

    I haven’t asked on here - I’m in Utah, and haven’t seen any active members on here from UT. That is so sweet of you to offer! I am really just looking for silkies though :) I bought a bunch of shipped eggs this year and had very few of them develop/hatch so I thought that I would just see if I...

    People unwilling to sell hatching eggs!

    I have asked 3 local chicken people if I can buy hatching eggs and all 3 have said nope. I also had a horrible experience a few months ago asking someone who would have to ship eggs if they would sell any to me and they got angry and blocked me! This is all very surprising to me. I am being...
