We take great care in preparing and packaging every order to give your hatching eggs the best possible chance of arriving safely. Each egg is individually wrapped in bubble wrap, securely cushioned with ample packaging material, and shipped in a double-boxed package for maximum protection during transit.
However, once eggs leave our hands and are in the care of the postal/courier service, we cannot be held responsible for damage, delays, rough handling, temperature fluctuations, fertility rates, hatch rates, or any other issues that may occur during shipping or incubation. Shipping hatching eggs always carries some risk, as rough handling and environmental conditions can affect viability despite careful packaging.
By purchasing shipped hatching eggs, the buyer acknowledges and accepts these risks.
