Thats terrible. I ordered from Blue-Ribbon-Farms on EBay, and though I have not had a chick hatch, she has been great. First, she worked with me on the 6 assorted Bantam eggs. I told her 0 hatched and the 5 that developed only developed to about day 5. She told ne she was sorry about the hatch rate, and she would send me more. She sent 12 White Cochin Bantam eggs as replacement for the 8 that I bought. And she only made me pay $10 for shipping. I updated her on the fertility of the white eggs saying only 1 developed and she replied that if I was ever her way I could pick up some eggs/chicks from her for free. She really has been great, and though I might not order from her again because of fertility and hatch rates, she has been amazing with her customer service.

That is great. I had 4/12 broken in transit. Out of the 8 none broken 4 started to develop with 1 quitting around day 5-7. Then 2 made it out of the shell. I understood shipping eggs is hard so said nothing about all that, but then when I realized they were the wrong breed I messaged them. If they even offered a partial refund I would have been good. Or even send me a few more, but to offer nothing then say they are no longer selling. I was not happy

I would not have been either. I think this batch may have got x rayed on the way. Its only 7 hours away from me.

Sad. I am hoping this next group has better luck in shipping. And she is NPIP certified and says in the listing flocks are kept separate so I should at least get the right breed. Out of 18 eggs I would be thrilled with 6 chicks
