                                                                     ****Thanks for Supporting America's Small Family Farms...same location since 1847**** I have 3 varieties of the American Hertitage Breed of dual purpose poultry, the Wyandotte...Blue-laced Red,Golden Laced and the Silver Laced. I am attaching pics of the combined winter flock taken in late fall and sorted flocks. The breeder flocks were sorted in late January and I usually have fertile hatching eggs available starting March 1st. I have a robust local market for hatching eggs and I also hatch many chicks on a "as ordered" basis. This auction is for 12+ Blue-laced Red Wyandotte eggs.....AND if hens cooperate, I will add extra eggs. Wyandottes are great light brown egg layers (mine usually lay everyday depending on the weather), good free-ranged/confined, cold hardy, great personalities, broody/good moms, & they're usually very vocal birds (roos & hens). Hens are usually around 6 lbs. & roosters around 8.5 lbs; they're known as the "Bird of Curves" & make great backyard "Eye Candy"! I collect eggs twice daily from our hens & I will send clean eggs but unwashed so they stay fresh. They are placed in a GQF automatic egg turner in my climate controlled hatch room at a temperature of 45-65F. The most desired bloodlines(show quality and productivity) are represented by the hatching eggs that I have purchased and hatched from breeders in New Mexico, Missouri, Maryland and Texas. The parents of these birds are proven producers and show winners in the Texas, Oklahoma and Arkansas area. Primarily Foley Line of BLRW's. My breeder flocks are housed in three different pens and are rotated "free range" every third day. Seasonal crops are planted to supplement their food. This makes for healthy and happy chickens. Upon Delivery: Allow cool eggs to warm slowly to room temperature before placing in the incubator. Abrupt warming from 55 degrees to 100 degrees causes moisture condensation on the egg shell that leads to disease and reduced hatches. We advise that the eggs be carefully UN-wrapped then placed in a cool-humid storage area. Ideal storage conditions include a 55 to 68 degrees F. temperature and 75% relative humidity. Store the eggs with the small end pointed downward over night or 24 hrs. To help the egg settle. Hatchability holds reasonably well up to seven days, but declines rapidly afterward. Therefore, do not store eggs more than 7 days [Remember to include the days in shipping] before incubating. After 3 weeks of storage, hatchability drops to almost zero. Plan ahead and have a regular hatching schedule to avoid storage problems and reduced hatches. Eggs should be placed in an incubator maintained at 99.5 to 100 degrees.
