We are a small hobby farm and do not have 100’s of birds of each breed, therefore, we have a limited amount we presell and then release more shipping dates as availability arises. Please carefully select your shipping date as WE DO NOT OFFER REFUNDS. Your shipping date is not guaranteed but we do leave a week open every several weeks to reschedule should we have setbacks with things out of our control (weather, egg production, family emergencies, etc.). Our Spring shipments start when we have checked our fertility rates - which we are very particular about. If our rates aren’t good, we don’t ship until they are. So, our first release of dates are limited each year until we confirm and then we add dates throughout the breeding season - so check back or join our Poultry & Livestock Newsletter for updates.

You can not place two orders of the same listing but you are welcome to choose another listing of another quantity.

Your payment secures your spot in our shipping schedule. We normally only ship on Mondays and Tuesdays (depending on the destination, sometimes we ship Express on Wednesday or Thursday). We fulfill orders in the order we receive them. We highly suggest USPS EXPRESS or UPS 2nd Day Air because you get a guaranteed delivery date and the mail has been running unpredictability. Local Pickup, please select “Local Pick Up” for shipping during checkout.

We have hatching eggs available from around April - October. Quantities vary on the season and flock size. You are welcome to contact us off season to see what we have available. We require payment in full before pick-up and shipment. We can not guarantee a successful home hatching but we do have a 80% - 95% hatch rate on our farm. Please read our policy thoroughly at checkout before purchasing.

Please note that Malines are typically a harder breed to hatch. Your hatch rate may be lower than expected. Our hatch rate for Malines on the farm is around 80%.

Malines Breed Information

Please note we have a hen carrying a lighter colored gene, along with a rooster of lighter color who can produce a “blonde” chick. If you don’t find this acceptable, please do not order from us. As there are several color types in Europe of Malines, we are seeing where the color takes our flock and following it closely.
