fertile Lavender English Orpington hatching eggs
At Game Fowls Ranch, our Lavender English Orpington breeding pens are selectively line-bred to maintain authentic imported English Orpington type—focusing on broad, deep-bodied frames, loose and fluffy plumage, low carriage, clean slate legs, and smooth, uniform self-lavender coloration ($lav/lav$). Lavender English Orpingtons are famously dociles, friendly, cold-hardy, and calm around children and small livestock, making them exceptional dual-purpose homesteaders and exhibition contenders.
Every hatching egg is hand-selected and inspected prior to packing:
-
Freshness Guaranteed: Collected daily from clean nesting boxes and stored in temperature-controlled rooms ($55^\circ\text{F}$–$60^\circ\text{F}$) to preserve embryo viability.
-
Shell Quality & Size: Only clean, strong-shelled, correctly shape-graded large eggs with optimal air cells are selected for shipping.
-
Specialized Packaging: Eggs are carefully secured in custom-cut, high-density foam shippers or double-boxed egg cartons wrapped in shock-absorbing bubble padding to withstand transit handling.
