12 PURE BRED LIGHT SUSSEX Large Fowl Hatching Eggs

for your incubator or broody hen

Light Sussex are very friendly, lay a pinkish brown/light coloured egg and are good layers

I have purchased eggs from different EBAYERS/sources last year; culled unwanted cockerels and kept the good looking ones. I am hatching eggs from our young birds and achieving over 90% fertility, however from experience of receiving posted eggs the eggs are affected; even resting the eggs for 24 hours as recommended before placing in the incubator. Also from experience an incubator is much better at hatching eggs than a broody hen! Would you turn your incubator off for 20 - 30 minutes once a day whilst having a drink - because that's what a hen does! A poor/cheap incubator with hot/cold spots manual turn can give disappointing results; my cheap one at best was 50% hatch, normal hatch rate 25%! My replacement quality, automatic turning one achieves over 75% of all eggs; over 90% of fertile eggs.

They are all fed on quality layers pellets, corn, fresh vegetables when available, deloused, wormed, and free range on grass.

I will send the freshest eggs available as soon as possible after payment.  They will be well packaged,  in purpose made poly boxes. I sometimes send eggs in previously used boxes that I have received eggs in - I believe in recycling and this is the only use for these polystyrene boxes as do not compost etc. 

Although all eggs are believed to be fertile, fertility cannot be guaranteed once the eggs have been through the post. HOWEVER if the eggs have gone in an incubator and all eggs infertile after 10 days then let me know and I will replace for the cost of the postage; I may ask for the eggs back. You are very welcome to collect the eggs. My postcode is SN4 7RB.

I would advise anyone to allow 24 hours for the eggs to settle at room temperature before starting incubation. 

Items are shipped either Royal Mail 1st Class or I can arrange Recorded if required 

I will post only to the UK (this includes IOM, Chanel Islands, Highlands & Islands as Royal Mail postage is same price although fertility will be affected the further they travel)

Any questions please contact Andy on 07876645951
