- Once your eggs are shipped via Canada Post (Xpresspost), the hatch rate may drop to around 50% or even lower.
- Please note that picking up hatching eggs also does not guarantee a high hatch rate, as factors such as weather affecting breeding chickens, handling and transportation of eggs, and variations in incubators and turners can impact outcomes
- Determining fertility by cracking eggs during or after the incubation process may not give an accurate ratio of fertile to infertile eggs. A fertile blastoderm can appear infertile after a short time in the incubator, and eggs may be damaged during transit or die early in the incubation process.
- Our breeding pens typically include several roosters to ensure high fertility and a diverse gene pool.
- The poultry and waterfowl are fed an enriched diet during the breeding season to promote health and maintain excellent egg quality.
- Please note that we do not offer replacements, credits, or refunds for hatching eggs.
- Deposits are non-refundable unless we are unable to fulfill your order, and this policy also applies to hatching eggs picked up at our farm gate.

- The buyer assumes all risks associated with shipped or picked up eggs, once they leave our hands.
- Each hatch is unique regarding hatch rate and there are too many outside factors to consider not every egg may start growth even if your eggs were picked up.
- A small fertile blastoderm in the egg may look infertile after a short time in the incubator. The blastoderm may die early in the incubation process or eggs may have been damaged during transit. Therefore, cracking the eggs during or after the incubation process in order to determine fertility is not going to be give you a precise ratio of fertile to infertile eggs.
