Terms and Conditions

TERMS AND CONDITIONS:

Before placing your order, read our terms and conditions:

If you place an order, I assume that you have read and agree with the following:

DAY-OLD CHICKS:

Chicks are hatching on a fortnightly basis, a day-old chick will be classed as day-old up to 7 days old. For every week over the hatch date, add $3 to the price of the chick.

Chicks requires a heat source until fully feathered, around 6-8 weeks old. For this reason chicks need to be brought at a minimum of 3 to assist with maintaining temperature and wellbeing.

We do not refund or exchange any day-old chicks for bio security reasons.

If a purchased 'sexed' female chick develops into a male, you must provide photo evidence within 12 weeks of purchase, that we deem meets reasonable proof, we will replace it with a day-old chick of the same breed or similar if none available.

FERTILE EGGS:

We have a continuous cycle of checking fertility for all our breeding pens, only selling fertile eggs when fertility reaches a minimum of 90%.

For the entirety of the season, we sit eggs from each breeding pen fortnightly. 

Eggs are then candled on day 7 & 14 with meticulous records kept, including hatch rates to ensure the ongoing high fertility.

We take due diligence to select quality eggs that are free from defects. Collected daily, eggs are within 4 days old at time of post. We package our eggs with our tried and tested method, photos can be found on our Facebook page. 

POSTAGE: Postage for the 2024 season now closed, pick up only.

All fertile eggs are posted ‘EXPRESS’ with Australia Post on MONDAYS.

Postage & handling is $30 per 1 dozen, $45 per 2 dozen.

We package eggs with the upmost care, but shipping can be hard on eggs and post can be unpredictable. 

Even when a package arrives looking undamaged, it is still a gamble. 

Once eggs are out of our possession, they are out of our control.

We will not refund or replace broken/damaged eggs or late packages.

*Damaged eggs may not be visible to the naked eye, this includes but is

not limited to: broken air sacks, broken yolks or fertile eggs that do not develop stemming from rough handling and extreme temperature in the post.

DISCLAIMER:

- Eggs come in a variety of sizes, pullets lay smaller eggs. We run pullets and hens together in breeding pens, this translates to the possibility of fertile eggs having some variation in size. We cannot guarantee egg size. If this is a concern for you, let us know before you place an order. No refunds or replacements will be given for egg size.

- Except where noted our birds are bred to the Australian Poultry Standard with years of hard work behind them. They unfortunately do not breed clones; we cannot guarantee you will hatch a show winning bird. 

-We cannot guarantee the sex of the chicks that you will hatch

- We do not allow public to visit our farm for bio security reasons, but we can often accommodate local meet up for collecting eggs in person.
