    Orpington - (LF) Large Fowl
    Hatching Eggs
    Fertility for us has been 100%
    here at
    Lily of the Hill farm.
    Our Orpington are the English (Large Fowl) variety originally from the Ewe Crazy Farms line
    .
    By purchasing these eggs via eBay Auction or Buy It Now you agree to all policy and shipping disclaimers on this page. If you need personalized service we have a website for our farm LilyOfTheHill.com Please check our website as we are not able to sell all our breeds on eBay and only post extra eggs on eBay.
    They are HUGE birds with big fluffy butts. The American variety are smaller. English Orpington are known for their low fertility rate but that is due mainly to only feathers that get in the way when mating. Some folks trim (not pluck) the back of their hens (around the vent area only) just enough so that the fertility rate increases....and mine are at 100 percent.
    This trimming does not hurt the birds and it is only done during the breeding season.
    We are a small farm and take very good care of our birds.
    Don't pass these up they are hard to find.
    Expertly packaged with hatching instructions included.
    You will love these sweet beautiful birds!
    Happy Hatching!!

    Broody hens
    -
    Not using a reliable incubator is a recipe for problems. Please avoid broody hens for shipped eggs.
    Fertility
    -
    We do regular fertility checks on our eggs to ensure fertility.
    Both fertilized egg and incubation.
    Some incubators are known to have
    unacceptable temperature & humidity fluctuations
    . Always research before you buy.
    And
    only t
    ry cheap hatching eggs on new incubators
    .
    Buyers should be letting their shipped eggs sit with the large side up for 24 hours before placing them in their
    incubator. The air space in the egg will need to settle and reform after it has been shuffled around by being in the mail.
    Buying hatching eggs is risky as shipping & handling can reduce your hatch rate!
    Although we insure each package, we
    DO NOT GUARANTEE YOUR HATCH RATE
    due to things beyond our control once they leave the farm.
    Eggs will be 48 hours old at most when shipped.
    We
    do not refund on hatching eggs for any reason.
    YOU MUST pay
    immediately
    for the eggs!
    If you're not paying immediately please do not bid or buy it now.
    If you are not ready for these eggs, Please do not bid/buy it now.
    We ship
    only to the lower 48 States.
