HAPPY HATCHING! Check us out at www.sixfeathersfarm.com for more details about our farm and poultry or on Facebook via our page Six Feathers Farm! PLEASE NOTE: Estimated delivery dates are the ABSOLUTE last day that you would receive your eggs. Often times, eggs are shipped out within two days of placing your order as we collect them fresh, twice daily. In the event that we have multiple orders of the same breed to fill you may have to wait a short time for the freshest eggs, but never 30+ days!This auction is for 6+ fertile Mottled Houdan hatching eggs. You will get a variety of each color that is laying at the time your order is placed as each pen of colors may not always be laying, but the colors are penned separately to keep them pure. We do not accept requests for a specific color. We will include a couple of extras in case of USPS mishandling IF they are available at the time of shipment. All of our breeds and colors are penned separately to ensure you receive eggs from 100% purebred birds.
We have taken much care in purchasing our breeding stock. Our birds do not come from hatchery stock. Fertility has been checked and is checked on a weekly basis via test hatches in our own cabinet incubator to ensure you are receiving eggs with over 85% fertility rates. We are an NPIP certified clean farm and take pride in the health and care of our birds. However, eggs are not washed prior to shipment so please expect some surface dirt and poop.
Payment is due IMMEDIATELY because of the time constraints with fertile eggs. To keep our fertility percentages as high as possible, we like to ship our eggs out within two days of collection, if possible. However, we only ship eggs Monday through Thursday. If your order is placed Friday through Sunday please expect shipment to happen on the following Monday to ensure the freshest eggs are collected and do not have to sit at the USPS in an uncontrolled environment.
Shipping and handling is for packaging materials, postage and our time packaging the eggs. We wrap each egg individually in bubble wrap. The eggs are then completely surrounded in shredded newspaper to prevent shifting during shipment. All boxes are labeled FRAGILE on each side and on the top. Please note, shipping time depends on where you live compared to where the item is shipped from. We are located in central Michigan and usually all shipments are received within a maximum of 3 days. All eggs are shipped via USPS Priority Mail therefore insured up to .
Please allow your eggs to rest for at least 12 hours, pointed end down after unwrapping them before placing them in the incubator. This will let the air sack to settle back into place after shipment. Please remember the above information when leaving feedback. Feedback should be left upon arrival of your eggs and not after your eggs hatch. There are too many variables that affect the viability of the eggs once they leave our hands. Just because your eggs do not hatch does not mean they are not fertile. Exposure to extreme temperatures, rough handling during shipping, differences in incubating practices, and other issues all can effect hatching eggs. If you have any concerns about your eggs, please message us before leaving neutral or negative feedback so we have the opportunity to rectify any issues.
