Hatching Egg Information: We keep all our colors separate except we do keep a few pens containing blue/splash and Cuckoo/blue/black. We might use a splash roo with blue hen (or vice-a-versa) and a cuckoo roo with blue or black hen. The eggs will be marked accordingly. We do not mix any other colors in the breeding pens. We store our eggs in a controlled environment no longer than 2 days before shipping so you will receive the freshest eggs. The eggs are carefully packed to avoid any damage in shipping and are shipped USPS Priority Mail (extras will be sent). We have good fertility and good hatch rates here and only sell hatching eggs when we have eggs in the incubator ourselves which lets us know if the boys are doing their jobs! But due to uncontrollable shipping conditions, I cannot guarantee yours. We have had some very good feedback regarding hatches from our customers. Birds: We will rate our birds the same as we would if we were to keep them. Pet quality means that these birds have a flaw that would be a disqualification in the show ring or that we would not like to see in a breeding program such as wrong number of toes, single comb or wrong coloration. Breeder quality would be a bird that has qualities that could be useful in a breeding program and has no major flaws. Any slight flaws will be noted and the bird will be priced accordingly. We do not usually use the term show quality on young silkies as you cannot fully evaluate a bird until maturity. We will, however, note if a young bird is from show winning parents and shows good potential or if he/she has placed at a show. We do not guarantee sex of any chick or young bird unless stated in the description. We occasionally sell sexed pairs. We will not hold any bird until sale is confirmed and payment received. If payment is not received after confirmation of a sale within 5 days, bird(s) may sell to someone else. We ship birds USPS Express Mail continental U.S. only and charge $65 shipping for the first box load and $35 shipping for each additional box load (price includes boxes). Once the box is in the hands of the Postal Service, we no longer guarantee the birds. The birds will be insured and any claims should be made to the Postal Service by you. A few days prior to shipping, we get them used to the boxes so they are not stressed and then they are finally shipped, weather permitting, with plenty of goodies for the trip. Upon notification of shipment of birds, you should call your local P.O. to let them know they are coming and they will call you as soon as they arrive so you can pick them up. We can also deliver to any of the shows we attend. In 2013, we are planning on going to Central IL Poultry Show, Peoria, IL 5/4; IL/MO Bantam Club Show, Highland, IL 6/1; Shelby Co. Fair, Shelbyville, IL 7/23; IL State Fair, Springfield, IL 8/19; IL/MO Bantam Club Show, Highland, IL 11/2 and OH Nationals in Columbus, OH 11/10. FEED ALERT!!! Due to the 2012 drought, high levels of toxins (alfatoxin, mycotoxin), have been found in the corn crop. This can cause serious problems for your birds especially breeders and babies. Commercially prepared feeds will usually contain toxin binders which will eliminate the problems but please check your labels. If you feed cracked corn or grind your own corn for feed, please have it tested for toxins. If you do find it in your feed, you can puchase toxin binders to add to the feed. Contact your local feed supplier. Please note: A few states are now requiring a health certificate (at a cost of $15) and possibly AI testing (at a cost of approximately $35.00 for 2 adult birds). Random birds in our flock have been recently AI tested but Illinois does not issue an approval number for flocks so birds must be individually tested before being sent.
