Fertile Egg Orders are now open! Read the page below to understand how it all works then fill in the Egg Pre-Order form!
This season we are only taking pre orders for our ‘Sale Breeds’. The list of our sale breeds is below. Each 'Breed' is the breeding group. If it says Blue/Black then all eggs will be a mix of blue/black and aren't able to be separated. Next to each breed is the maximum amount of eggs for that breed that can be ordered at a time. You can pre order one of those eggs or up to the maximum amount for those eggs. These are estimates so you may be contacted once the hens start laying for us to inform you that we can no longer supply that amount of eggs.
Once you've chosen the eggs you want and the amount of them read through the info list. This provides information on fertility rates, what to expect and our terms and conditions.
Fill in the Pre-Order form. Make sure to include all information and check that it is correct. Make sure that your actual order is also correct and follows the correct amount of eggs that you can order etc. Any mistakes causing us to contact you will delay your spot on the list and will now incur a 50c surcharge (due to the large amount of pre-orders we will get and the fact that all information is written out).
We estimate that we can start filling fertile egg Pre-Orders by August. Fertility testing, hatch rates and a good amount of hens laying must happen before we can start filling orders. We hope to fill all orders by November.
Once it's your turn for your order to be filled we will email you a 7-10 days out from the date of shipment. Please make sure to reply to this email straight away as well as make payment. Because we need to move on eggs quickly you will have 2 days to reply before we contact the person who is next in line. We will try make contact with you again for next weeks shipping.
Check out our page on shipping to learn more!
We use NZ post overnight courier on all egg orders. Eggs are packed extremely well. Check out our Shipping page for more information.
We aim for quality in all of our breeds. Every season we only select breeding stock that has no defects and aim to improve on the quality each season.
We only sell fertile eggs once fertility for that breed is above 90%.
We have removed the total order amount of eggs for pre-orders this season. As long as each breed amount does not go over the maximum amount you can order as many eggs as you'd like! You can now also make multiple orders.
Pre-Orders are first in first served however we also fill orders as they're ready. Good laying breeds such as leghorns, olive eggers etc will lay sooner and more so if you're just after eggs go for them first.
PLEASE read our terms and conditions prior to ordering. This will inform you on our procedures and what we are responsible for if something goes wrong.
