Hatching Egg Information

Chesapeake Farm & Hatchery offers a variety of hatching eggs based upon availability. Eggs are not able to be sexed. During extreme weather, please use your best judgment on deciding whether to have hatching eggs shipped. Hatching eggs are usually delivered to your address instead of being held at the post office like chicks. Check with your local post office to verify this.

We guarantee that your eggs will arrive unbroken but do not guarantee your hatching success because of the many variables with shipping, incubating, and hatching. Breakage must be reported upon arrival. After transport, whether picked up at the hatchery or shipped, let your eggs sit for at least 12 hours before placing them into the incubator.
