The most widely consumed eggs are those of fowl, especially chickens. Eggs of other birds, including ostriches and other ratites, are eaten regularly but much less commonly than those of chickens. People may also eat the eggs of reptiles, amphibians, and fish. Fish eggs consumed as food are known as roe or caviar.

Here is a rough estimate of cost for shipping and handling: For 15-300 birds Step 1: 25.00 flat fee Step 2: 15-100 x $0.27 per bird charge. 101-150 x $0.25 per bird charge, 151-300 x $0.23 per bird charge. Step 3: 25.00 + per bird charge= shipping cost. Example 15 birds is 29.05, 25 is 31.75, 50 is 38.50, 100 is 52.00.

The first thing you'll need to hatch chicks is, of course, eggs. For hatching to occur, the eggs must be fertile. Fertile eggs can be collected from hens who are housed with a rooster. Eggs sold in grocery stores are not fertile; therefore, they will not grow into baby chicks if placed in an incubator.

Most of our flocks are placed on Amish farms and eggs are brought into our 30,000 square feet hatchery (Lebanon location) every Thursday. Since 1936 we have focused on selective breeding to produce disease resistant and productive poultry for the backyard or farm use.
