The 7th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-A-Long!

[chattery41]

From my point of view, when you make a purchase you are agreeing to all terms set forth. They said upfront they can't guarantee fertility or hatch rate. As a buyer I would have passed on the eggs since hatch is understandable, but I want a seller that will replace if fertility is bad. As a seller myself I would guarantee fertility, but if I have something stated before a purchase is made I also expect the buyer to have read and understood the terms

I understand that but she did project the 90% and like i said, i don't want anything for free but i would expect to get near 50% at a minimum. How did she get 90% and then i got 30% ? Just doesn't seem like good business to me and she is supposed to be a reputable breeder. I'm thinkin if the fluffy butt is getting in the way they would trim the muff to get the fertility they need. Oh well not much i can do but give a bad review.

For those asking about hatching in paper egg cartons, yes you can. I cut the tops off and just use the bottoms, it works fine.

Now where to put it?

Quote: I would honestly stay away from anyone that won't guarantee fertility. That being said, they should make it right. Not try to sell you eggs no one else will buy. I don't know of a single person I've dealt with that wouldn't send more eggs if something went wrong on their end.

I agree

I'd avoid it if I was you.

OMG, I'm brooding 20 right now (on their way outside soon, as soon as I get their growout tractor coops done). And I have another 20 coming plus 8 I'm hatching. I'm already overwhelmed - I don't see how you guys brood so many!!!!!!

She even admits that is a big drop and she wants to make up for it by selling me more eggs. Crazy crazy people.
