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.
Ordered a dozen hatching eggs. Asked that the post office call when they arrived. Instead they were delivered to my door. None of the 14 eggs sent hatched. Most died before day 10. Only one developed into lock down and that one too died before hatch. Very disappointed as I really wanted some/ any of these breeds..I followed all the hatching instructions including letting them sit pointy end down for 24 hrs and I even incubated pointed end down for the first 7 days as was instructed. I don't think I will order again instead seek these breeds elsewhere.
Hi Grace,
We’re truly sorry your hatch didn’t go as hoped—there’s nothing more disappointing than waiting 21 days and ending up with heartbreak. We completely understand your frustration.
That said, we do want to offer some clarity. Our hatching tips are designed to help—but they’re not guarantees. Shipped hatching eggs always come with risk. Even when packaging is perfect, rough handling in transit can cause invisible trauma—especially to the air cell or developing embryo—which often leads to early failure, just like you described.
The fact that most of your embryos developed and then stopped before day 10 strongly suggests there may have been a mix of shipping trauma and incubation-related stress. Heat fluctuations, humidity swings, or incorrect turning (even briefly) during those early days can cause losses.
We're glad you gave the eggs time to settle and incubated with the pointy end down—air cell up is the correct orientation. If you were turning them gently from side to side, then you followed our recommendations well. Sometimes, even doing everything “right” just isn’t enough to overcome the rough ride.
We care deeply about our birds, our breeds, and the folks trying to raise them. If you ever decide to give it another shot, we’re always here to support you—not just with eggs, but with real guidance from people who hatch right alongside you.

I received the perfect mix with 2 extra eggs. None broke during shipping. 8 days in and I'm happy to see 11 out of 14 are developing well! I can't wait tell hatch day!
That is great! Keep us posted!
Good variety of eggs, great landrace breeds! Well packed, no breakage.
Very happy with my purchase, communication and customer service was fantastic, I didn’t have the greatest hatch rate but for my first time I was happy with what I got :)
I received some of all kinds of eggs, and all of them(3 dozen total arrived in great condition!)
Happy hatching!
