I've purchased eggs from her before (silver laced cochins) and she did a great job shipping them. I definitely recommend her as a seller.

However, please understand that mille fleur isn't a recognized variety of cochin for showing.

I'm IN ! I'm IN
My dear cousin just gifted me an order of hatching eggs from papabrooder I'M SO EXCITED.
I have the coolest cousin in the universe, really I do.
Now to begin the nail biting to see if the eggs make it here, from CA to TN, in this weather, and in hatchable condition.
I'm sooooo excited.

Now to go tell the long suffering, had to walk up the hill in the ice storm b/c the tractor had a flat tire today DH that I'm going to be hatching more eggs...anyone want to tell him for me (cousin backed out on that part of things)....

Gotta go get that incubator cleaned and ready, maybe the DH won't notice ;>

That is who I ordered from. I researched many suppliers of cochin bantam hatching eggs..... took me months. After talking to her, about 20 past customers I jumped in and ordered from her. I contacted her through her facebook page, she will do an order of your choice!

I LOVE my cochins!! They are rare here in WV where I live, they make great friendly flocks.

Do you mind me asking what your hatch rate was?? Just nervous about shipped hatching eggs.

I had 8 hatch out of 12 eggs. Of the 4 that didn't hatch, 2 were infertile, 1 quit at day seven, and 1 simply didn't hatch.

My best advice is to keep track of their masses for accurate humidity levels.

Try not to reply on air cell sizes with shipped eggs. Often times the air cells are dislocated so it's difficult to judge their true size.
