Pure bred leghorns (white/lavender/black) white eggs, Cream Crested Legbars - blue eggs, White Silkies - cream eggs.  We will post out but prefer if you come and collect.  This way the eggs are fresher, and stay in the fridge until you collect.  If you have had difficulties hatching from Edbay etc why not try a local supplier?


Day old chicks and pullets also available.

Where about in fife are you, I am Arbroath and would collect if not to far from Tay bridge

[hughesy]

Do you keep fertile eggs in the fridge?  That's interesting. Does that affect fertility or hatch rates?

[mojocafa]

Do you still have hatching eggs available

Hi folks, we live not far from Kelty, north of Dunfermline.  If interested please email and I will send you directions.  Hatching eggs available for Cream Crested Legbars and Leghorns, not many Silkie  (L/F) eggs just now as most of them are broody and sitting on eggs.  Although collection is preferable we can post out.  Yes we keep the hatching eggs in the fridge - and then I would bring them up to temperature before putting in the incubator. We have sold several batches of eggs this year (as well as hatching our own) and as far as I know there has been no complete hatching failures.  We even had a powercut and they still hatched.  The eggs are fresh, unwashed, and turned in the fridge - I am no scientist but believe it keeps them in a 'suspended' state until ready for use. It works for me.


thanks
Carol

Received today from a recent customer:



"Just  to let you know our hatching went well. Cream Legbars 5 out of 6, 2 cocks and 3 hens and Leghorns 4 out of 6. So happy with that result.

Thanks again for your help"
