I got guinea eggs from them a few weeks ago. Shipping was ok, they sent one extra egg, and I had 2 eggs that were broken on arrival.
But after nearly two weeks in the incubator, nearly half of the eggs were either not fertile, or didn't start developing for some reason. Of the ones that have started to develop, many of those seemed to have died. Maybe that's my fault, though.
Anyone else order from them? How'd you make out?
Personally, I think I'm just going to buy eggs locally from now on. For the price I paid for those eggs, I could have purchased a dozen live keets from a lady in a nearby town. I'll be lucky if I even get 1/2 dozen of them to hatch!
I'm not bashing B&D Game Farm. There's no real way they can tell if every single egg is fertile, and like I said, the problem may have been in the shipping or even on my end.
