“I ordered two sets of "Eggs for Education". Arrive on time. packaged nicely. Received 14 eggs total. 4 hatched. That's it. 4 out of 14. very disappointed.”
Angelique, we are very sorry that you are disappointed with your hatch rate. Fresh, fertile eggs that have never shipped hatch at an average rate of 80% or so. If they are shipped, that rate drops to an average of 50%, even when they are handled very carefully! No suppliers of hatching eggs can guarantee a hatch rate. However, My Pet Chicken is excited to offer an innovative and unmatched Hatch Rate Guarantee. Orders of 12 eggs or less experiencing a 25% or lower hatch rate, qualify for a full complimentary reshipment.
“I am happy with the ordering/purchasing/shipping/delivery, but it hasn’t been long enough yet, so they haven’t hatched. We are having fun watching our broody mama take care of her eggs, though. We’ve got about 8 days left before hatch day!”
“This is the second year I have ordered eggs for the second grade students at my school from My Pet Chicken. They all arrived safely with no cracks! We are eagerly awaiting "hatch day" on May 8th! Last year we had a great hatch rate, so I am hopeful for the same experience this year.”
“The eggs arrived well packaged and protected, marked with the breed, and an explanation sheet of what the markings meant. Upon hatching, the chicks are already super sweet and friendly. I've got quite the variety and cannot wait to watch them grow up.”
“The eggs came exactly when they were supposed to. I spoke to a representative who lived in Montana who gave me excellent advice that I didn't know about letting the eggs set before putting them in the incubator upon receipt. There are a nice variety of eggs and the children are so excited. We put the tracking route on our board and watched it leave West Palm Florida and arrive in our small town of Jensen Beach. You would have thought we received golden eggs by their little expressions. Can't wait until they hatch!! Thanks.”
