Are they shipped eggs?

No I’m talking about from when they are laid

I'm currently hatching chicks. My recommendation would be within 10 day of collecting the first egg. The older the eggs are the less viable they become. Are you putting them in an incubator or letting a broody incubate? Good luck and have fun...

The fresher the better.
