I was worried about the length of time in the mail (standard shipping) for a few days BUT 5 eggs were viable eggs. Momma kicked the nonviable one out of the nest a day before my babies hatched. 3 of the 5 hatched....one pipped but never hatched and one just stopped growing, never pipped, never hatched. Both were blue eggs. The ones I really wanted to hatch....Bummer. When I received these eggs, I said if only 2 hatched, I would be happy. Well, I got 3....then headed to TSC to buy 4 more because I wanted black/dark ones. I am not sure what happened at the last minute with these 2 but it's depressing and sad. My heart is broken for these babies. Their customer service was spot on when I asked a question! I would recommend! Review: Disappointing Experience with shipped Eggs - Review: Disappointing Experience with Shipped Hatching Eggs I recently ordered 2 set of hatching eggs from this seller, hoping for a good hatch rate based on their product description and reviews. Unfortunately, my experience was far from ideal. Out of the 12 eggs I received, only 3 successfully hatched, while the remaining 9 failed, despite following proper incubation practices. One of the biggest concerns I have is the shipper knows shipping time and rough handling can reduce the hatching success. The eggs took seven days to arrive, which is a long time for something as delicate as hatching eggs. Shipper knowFertile eggs are highly sensitive to temperature changes, rough handling, and extended travel times. The longer they are in transit, the lower the chances of a successful hatch. I strongly believe that the extended shipping time played a major role in the poor hatch rate. Another issue is the way the eggs were handled during transit. When I received the package, some of the eggs appeared to have been shaken or roughly handled. The seller even acknowledged in our communication that the shipping process can be harsh and unpredictable. If the seller already knows that rough handling and long transit times significantly decrease hatch rates, then why continue to ship eggs over long distances? It seems unfair to customers who invest time, effort, and money only to receive eggs that have little to no chance of developing. Furthermore, I believe that sellers should be more transparent in their listings. Nowhere in the product description did it clearly state that hatching success drops significantly as shipping distance increases. Buyers should be fully informed before making a purchase, so they know the risks involved. If sellers insist on shipping eggs across long distances, they should at least clearly state in their descriptions that extended travel times dramatically lower hatch rates. This would allow buyers to make an informed decision rather than discovering the risks after their eggs fail to hatch. I followed all the proper incubation procedures, including candling the eggs at different stages. The 9that failed to hatch showed no signs of internal movement or development, suggesting they were likely damaged before they even arrived. This further reinforces the fact that shipping conditions played a major role in the failure. I am writing this review not because I want a refund or replacement—I will not be ordering hatching eggs again due to this experience. I simply want to warn other potential buyers about the risks involved. If you are considering purchasing hatching eggs from this seller or any seller that ships over long distances, be aware that your hatch rate will likely be much lower than expected. Sellers should take responsibility by either limiting their sales to local buyers or being upfront about the shipping risks. Otherwise, buyers will continue to experience disappointment and wasted effort. I hope this feedback helps others make a more informed decision before purchasing hatching eggs online.

ALL Eggs Hatched!!!!!
God is great! All eggs Hatched, we are blessed. Thank you seller. You made A LOT of people happy in our family witnessing this miracle with your fertilized eggs. Beautiful chicks. Updated Review 08/03/24. First let me preface this by saying I don't like leaving negative reviews. I will work with sellers if there is a problem before I ever leave a bad review. I previously bought from this seller 3 separate times, and was very happy wit the results. This 4th time however is disappointing. Long story short, none of the eggs that were shipped were even fertilized. All six eggs were eventually broken after a month and not one chick was in any of them. I notified the seller, to see if they would take care of me and at the very least send me a new batch or even half especially since I was a previous buyer and was promptly shut down. Not cool all. So I'm lowering this to a 3 star review. The 3 stars are for the past performance and the quality of the eggs. I'm removing 2 stars for this most recent bad experience. Buyers just be aware, you may not get the results you were hoping for.

Waste of money
4 of 6 eggs were damaged, the other 2 were duds and did not hatch. There was a note saying that any damaged eggs would be replaced, but no number to contact.

Only half seem fertilized.
I received the eggs on time and there were a total of six eggs packaged pretty well. All in great condition. I had a broody hen that would get off of our unfertilized eggs. So I gave her the fertilized ones. To which she sat and was such a good Momma only getting up to eat and potty once a day. I'm in California and the weather is great,plenty warm. However only one egg hatched. I went and bought newborn chicks and swapped out the rest of the eggs. Apon opening the others there was only two fertilized ones that didn't make it. The other three were not fertilized. Number 1 in the picture was our hatcher.

One out of Six hatched but I’m okay with that
So here’s the thing: I was in a pickle with a broody hen. She wanted babies and I can’t have a roo in my neighborhood. I needed eggs for her to care for and the fake eggs weren’t cutting it for this mama because she kicked them out of the box within 30 minutes. I ordered these eggs with skepticism since the reviews weren’t the greatest but hey! they did the job imo. You’re going to pay $20 for a fully grown pullet that’s laying already anyway so… The package of eggs came extremely well wrapped and MUCH faster than I was expecting - one business day to be exact. I placed them under my hen and 3 weeks later, problem solved! So before you decide that buying fertilized eggs off of here is a bad idea, really gauge your situation on how you want to handle your broody hen. Im glad I gave it a shot and hope to do this again if the problem arises; it’s more humane than shoving them in a cage for a few days or icing them down, imo.

A little disappointing. 1/8.
August 3, 2020: I have had great success with my incubator in the past, but unfortunately this batch did not do well. The package arrived safely and I got it from the mailbox the same day it was delivered. The eggs had no visible cracks to my naked eye and looked in good condition, so I put all 8 in the incubator. The eggs were all different, and I was excited at the potential of having all different looking chicks hatch. After 5 days, I went to check on the eggs and when I lifted the cover there was a bad smell. Candling the eggs revealed that two were rotten (all dark interior) and the offending sources of the smell, and another 5 eggs had no development. Only 1 egg of the 8 eggs looks to have development so far, but we will see as it still has 16 days to go and I will update accordingly. August 18, 2020: I contacted the vendor and they quickly responded they would send a new batch, so I waited about a week and reached back out to them. Unfortunately I haven’t heard back when I reached out a second time. The good news is that the one good egg did develop just find and it’s hatched into a cute, reddish brown little ball of fluff.
