Fertile Black Australorp eggs from Tower Hill

Price

$55 per dozen fertile eggs (GST included)
$38.50 Express Post per parcel, which covers up to 2 dozen (GST included)

Packed in Eggspress Safe cartons.

Packaging

Your eggs travel in an Eggspress Safe carton, an Australian-made insulated foam carton that holds each egg snugly, pointy end down, in its own padded cell. One carton holds a dozen, and two dozen travel together in the one Express Post satchel.

How it works

Three steps (order online, we post on Mondays by Express Post, set eggs on arrival), the states we post to (Tas, Vic, NSW, ACT, Qld, SA; not WA or NT), and a pencil sketch of a black Australorp hen beside a nest of eggs

Place your order online.
After you order, we collect the freshest eggs from hens running with our roosters.
We usually post on Mondays by Express Post, so your eggs spend the least time possible in transit over a weekend.
Set your eggs on arrival for the best result.

Supply is limited. Our flock is small and still growing, and hens lay to the season, so eggs are offered as they become available. If eggs are not listed, please check back soon.

Where we post

We post to Tasmania, Victoria, New South Wales, the ACT, Queensland and South Australia.
We don't post to Western Australia or the Northern Territory.
We do not post overseas.

Postage is to those states only.

Pickup from the farm can be arranged by appointment.

Hatch rates

Fertile eggs are a living product and travel by post. We pack every egg with care, but once a parcel leaves us, handling, temperature and incubation are outside our control. For this reason we cannot guarantee fertility or hatch rates, and we do not offer refunds for eggs that fail to hatch. If a parcel arrives badly damaged, send us photos on the day it arrives and we will talk it through with you.

Order fertile eggs

Fertile eggs are available to order now. Supply is limited and our flock is still growing, so numbers can sell out.

Notes (optional)

Payment: Orders of 1 or 2 dozen are paid securely by card through Square when you place your order, and you'll see the total before you pay. For more than 2 dozen, send us a request. No payment is taken at that point. We'll confirm by email what we can supply and then send you a payment link.

I understand fertile eggs come with no fertility or hatch guarantee and no refunds for eggs that fail to hatch.

I agree to Primal Pastures storing these details to reply to me, as set out in the privacy policy.

FAQ

When will my eggs be posted?

Usually on the Monday after you order. We will email you when your parcel is on its way.

How fresh are the eggs?

They are collected in the days leading up to posting, from hens running with our roosters.

Can I eat them?

These eggs are sold for hatching only, not for eating.

What should I do when they arrive?

Unpack them gently, check for cracks, and let them rest pointy end down for a few hours before setting them in your incubator or under a broody hen.

Will I get roosters?

Yes, roughly half of the chicks hatched are likely to be males. Please plan for them before you hatch.

Can I order more than 2 dozen?

Get in touch and we will see what our hens can supply. Postage for larger orders is quoted separately.

Is postage cheaper for 1 dozen?

No. Express Post is a flat $38.50 for up to 2 dozen in the one parcel.
