Description: Fall 2024 (October-December) availability update: Please expect the unexpected during the Fall in Florida. Our birds will be laying FULL TIME one week and we will get zero eggs the next week. Our priority is getting you FERTILIZED and FRESH eggs. Please understand wait times cannot be estimated during this time of the year, but we will do our best. You can contact us directly after you place your order. Please understand that wait time estimates given prior to placing your order CANNOT be guaranteed, since any number of customers can order in between the estimate and your order being placed. Thank you for your understanding! You are purchasing hatching eggs from our silver pencil laced satin project breeding pen. Our silkie bloodlines are breeder quality and without major defects. Please remember that recessive traits can ALWAYS pop up and that breeders only keep a few of the very best birds every year. Breeder quality. HOWEVER please be aware that all satins are mixes of Cochins and silkies. Some satins MAY hatch with skin that is not completely black or with 4 toes. Please be aware of this in advance. Please understand that we collect our eggs FRESHLY. Our farm will take up to 5-6 total orders for a breed at any give time. However we currently have NO wait for our silkies (Oct 2023). NPIP & AI certified farm located in north Florida. We test for fertility monthly and keep 1 rooster per 6 hens to ensure fertility. We CANNOT guarantee your hatch rate. Shipping hatching eggs is a gamble. We will guarantee that your eggs arrive well packaged and 100% fertilized. We are currently able to fulfill orders within approximately 2 days for our Silkies. We will send out an email when your order ships. Please be patient as we work through our list of orders… in the order in which they are placed. Please do not wash your eggs prior to incubating them. We recommend incubating your eggs at 100F at a humidity of 40-45%. After 7 days candle your eggs and discard any that do not show growth. At day 18 candle your eggs again. At this time place all the developing eggs into lockdown at a humidity of 50-60%. They should hatch within a couple days, by day 21 of incubating. Please make sure to be prepared prior to incubating your eggs on good hatching practices! I cannot replace your eggs due to a bad hatch. Once they have left my hands it’s impossible for me to control all the variables. If you need assistance with your hatch please contact me. On FB, IG and Etsy @AkersFamilyFarm AkersFarm.com
