SECRET TO GREAT HATCHING OF SHIPPED EGGS:
************************************
Once your eggs arrives, unpackage them and allow them to sit for a full 24 hours before adding them to the heated incubator. This allows the air bubbles to rise up out of the yolk into the void area inside the shell.
Doing this allows the chick to hatch stronger, making it possible to escape the shell. It also minimizes birth defects and maximizes hatched chick life sustainability in the first 10 days after hatching.
* GENERAL INFO:
Please keep in mind that I CANNOT guarantee your hatch rate due to package handling by the USPS, your incubating technique, etc. If some of your eggs fail to develop, please understand that this doesn't necessarily mean that they are not fertile, simply that the embryo may have been damaged during shipping. Most of our customers report a high % hatch rate with shipped eggs. When testing for hatch rates, I take my eggs from the quail pens to the incubator and can achieve a higher hatch rate for this reason.
What I do guarantee is that you will get extremely fresh eggs at an extremely affordable price. No eggs are held over and mailed out the following day. This means that the postmark date is the date the eggs was always laid on.
