Speckled Eggs
Everyone loves speckled eggs, and we are no exception!
Speckled Olive Egger, Chocolate Egger (Marans mixes), and Fibro eggs never cease to amaze us, and we know everyone else feels the same way. Speckles are caused when the egg moves slowly through the hen's oviduct before being laid, from uneven pigment distribution. Regardless of the "why" of speckled eggs, they are a perennial favorite of people everywhere. I often think of speckled eggs like snowflakes, no two are exactly alike.
Shipping
Eggs are packaged in custom foam shippers, double boxed, and sent USPS priority two to three day mail. We ship eggs that are a maximum of three days post-lay at time of shipping. We do our very best to protect the eggs from rough handling, but we have no control over what happens to the box once it leaves our possession.
**PLEASE NOTE** Starting in 2025 USPS has added a $15 surcharge for all priority boxes (Eggs), and $7.50 for all Priority Express boxes (Chicks) for live a perishable goods. We have had to adjusted our shipping charges to cover this additional expense.
