You are purchasing African goose hatching eggs. We keep 3 Ganders and 8 hens. Our birds are beautiful and breeder quality, with defined dewlaps and the correct weight and height. Pure African goose eggs can be difficult to find. A lot of the choices available are pet quality at best or actually Chinese geese. I have worked hard to obtain high quality genetics from amazing breeders. That being said… shipping eggs is a gamble. Always purchase more eggs than you would like to hatch, I typically expect 50% hatch rates when I purchase shipped eggs.
NPIP & AI certified farm located in north Florida. We test for fertility monthly throughout laying season. We CANNOT guarantee your hatch rate. Shipping hatching eggs is a gamble. We will guarantee that your eggs arrive well packaged and 100% fertilized. Due to the changes at USPS we no longer can file your damage claims, so please be prepared to file the claim online if the need arises. As always, I am available by email to discuss any issues that arise. I truly want you to have a great hatch rate and beautiful chicks!
Please do not wash your eggs prior to incubating them. We recommend incubating your eggs at 99.5-100.5 at a humidity of 80%. After 10 days candle your eggs and discard any that do not show growth. At day 25 candle your eggs again. At this time place all the developing eggs into lockdown at a humidity of 80-100%. They should hatch within 5 days, by day 31 of incubating.
Please make sure to be prepared prior to incubating your eggs on good hatching practices! I cannot replace your eggs due to a bad hatch. Once they have left my hands it’s impossible for me to control all the variables. If you need assistance with your hatch please contact me.

Hatching eggs
Hatching eggs
Hatching eggs are collected freshly 2-4x a day. We only offer hatching eggs if we are able to collect your eggs within 5 total days. Typically, we can collect your order in as little as 1-2 days. However, we may have multiple orders when you place your order, so please check the processing times on each breeds description. We typically pull the inventory on a specific breed if the wait will be longer than a month. If you need a better estimate please contact us directly.
Shipping
Shipping
Hatching eggs are shipped individually wrapped in bubble wrap. Each egg is placed into an egg carton, which is also bubble wrapped. This box is filled with shredded paper for buffer. The box is then placed into a second, larger box and buffered. This allows the best hatch rate.
Plants are shipped Monday-Wednesday only. They are packaged in rolled cardboard and poly fill to avoid breakage.
Care information
Care information
Hatching eggs should be treated as described in our hatching guide.
Plants should be kept in their pots and allowed 1-2 weeks to acclimate to your home prior to repotting.
