Thank you for your interest in Lay Me A Rainbow eggs.

The 2026 breeding season is NOW OPEN.

All breeds have reached peak fertility, thanks to our small 5-hen breeding groups.

Lay rates are good and increasing as daylight hours lengthen.

— If you have placed an order and have not heard from me already, please check your spam folder. Eggs will not be sent without a response to my email checking the proposed date suits —

IMPORTANT By ordering, you agree to our Terms & Conditions, so I ask that you read them carefully and seek any clarification now. I want you to be happy but please know that transporting hatching eggs carries inherent risks including breakage and reduced hatchability. I do not guarantee any particular hatch rate. If you do not understand and accept the variable hatch rates associated with incubating eggs that have been transported, either by Australia Post or by you, please don’t purchase.

I express post Australia-wide each Monday, in carefully packed Eggspress Safe foam. You will always receive pictures of your exact eggs and a tracking code on the day they’re sent.

Farm gate pick-up is available in-season, by appointment.

A note on egg colour: Eggs are photographed for the website at the start of the season, when shells are darkest. For current egg colour, please ask or see our latest social media posts. Prior to packaging, you will receive a photograph and video of your exact eggs.

Official Marans egg colour charts are in stock, from France, sent in rigid mailers.
