• Shetland Hen – A lively and friendly breed from Scotland. Weighing 2-3 lbs, they lay 150-200 pale tinted to blue or green eggs per year and adapt well to various climates.

We’re here to help! Whether you’re a seasoned hatcher or incubating eggs for the first time, we provide guidance and support to ensure a successful hatch.

Disclaimer: Please be aware that while Cluck It All Farms takes every precaution to ensure the highest quality of our hatching eggs, several factors can impact the hatch rate and development of embryos. These include incubation practices, handling during shipment, and the environment in which eggs are incubated. While our eggs have a 90% hatch rate under controlled farm conditions, variations can occur during transit such as detached air cells, which may affect the hatchability. We are committed to transparency and quality but cannot guarantee specific outcomes once eggs leave our farm. For best results, we recommend following our detailed hatching guide and contacting us for any queries or support needed throughout your hatching journey.
