We expect providers of fertile eggs to replace eggs where the WHOLE box is shown to be infertile but not those which have failed during incubation. If you are selling eggs from unproven pens of birds, then this must be indicated on your box so the buyer is aware. There is a maximum of 15 boxes of eggs per person and all boxes must be labelled with your name, address, telephone number & breed of bird. Notes: Pen numbers will be given on the day.
