Caring For Your Eggs

Please refer to this page after you receive hatching eggs from me.

First off I want to start with explaining what you will be receiving. I collect my eggs on Friday Saturday and Sunday and Mail out the eggs the following Monday morning. My eggs are shipped out Priority mail and should reach you either Tuesday or Wednesday. PLEASE, have your incubator ALREADY disinfected, at the correct temperature and calibrated. Hatching eggs have about 7 days of storage time during which they are very likely to hatch. After that, hatchability declines exponentially. As soon as your eggs arrive, place them in a 60 degrees Farenheit room and leave for 10-12 hours. This settles the egg after vibrations from traveling. Please be VERY careful when unwraping your eggs, to prevent them from breaking. It is normal for a few specks of debris to be on the egg. DO NOT wash the eggs as this will remove the protective coating from them. After settling, all you should have to do is place the eggs in the incbator. If you have a still air incubator, you should be incubating at 101 degrees Farenheit. If you are using a forced air incubator, incubate at 99.5 degrees. Please thouroughly read your instruction manual for your incubator and refer to it during hatching. You should keep the humidity level at 60-65 percent for the first 18 days of hatching, and change it to 70-72 percent for the last three days. I hope you have great sucess, for any questions please email me. for any questions please email me.
