You do know you can update your feedback on Ebay??? I had horrible hatch rates with Gabbard Farms too and they did nothing about it.

A good number of them were not fertilized. They were from Gabbard farms. I emailed them about it and never got a reply. Wish I could go back and change my ebay feedback.

Yeah, we already have a nice looking flock. But after these bunch, it's going to be pretty unique for around here. I just set up a calendar, and we have chickens coming into laying every month February through July. Will make things interesting!

I thought once you entered and she entered a positive note, then there is nothing you can do to change it. It is all based on how she packed them and shipped them. She can not be responsible for the hatching rates but it seems like an awful LOTS of people, more than 50% had no or little hatching. Either the USPS shook them up so bad or she is having problems with fertility on her end.

In MY case, when I bought her roo, he was sterile from the get go. Never had ANY offsprings for him since I got him. So I gave him to a friend of mine who has Spitzhaubens, in turn, no chicks either in two years, even when he was with some very fertile EE girls, none ever got a "bullseye" in their yolks nor did they never developed. Beautiful roo but all he can do just be a yard ornament and protective to the girls in his flock.

You can "add a note" to your feedback, but not change it from what I can tell. I added a note about the horrible fertility rate, but since it's listed as positive, I'm sure not many people will ever read that part.
