Greater Rhea. Rhe greater rhea is native to Brazil, Bolivia, Argentina, Paraguay and Uruguay. It inhabits a variety of open areas, such as grasslands, savanna or grassy wetlands. Weighing 20–27 kilograms (44–60 lb), the greater Rhea is the largest bird in South America and the largest native, extant bird anywhere in the Americas. In the wild, the greater Rhea has a life expectancy of 10.5 years. It is also notable for its reproductive habits, and for the fact that a population has established itself in Northern Germany in recent years. The species is listed as Near Threatened by the IUCN.
The eggs you get come from our lovingly raised stock. From about May thru August we are able to offer fresh fertile hatching eggs from our Rheas. We collect eggs as soon as they are laid, and batch them indoors and catalog them until orders can be freshly packed and promptly shipped. We’ve been in business since 1987 and have sold hatching eggs for the past 15+ years. We pack our products very well folks, out of 1000’s of shipments we have never had a broken Rhea egg to other professionals in 15+ years.
If you are able to Add items to your cart, this means your eggs are getting laid now! But this does not mean that if you place your order on a Saturday night and pay for overnight shipping, you’re not getting your order the next day on Sunday. Friends, we have a Shipping Schedule we must follow to make each work week as productive as possible! Our process works, so rest assured, all egg orders are shipped in the order we get them, and we will only ship you the freshest eggs possible! If we cannot fill an order, we will let you know promptly and refund you in full. We will have a limited number of eggs to offer, but it’s all about patience. We want to take care of you.

Just like everyone else that ships eggs, we can not guarantee hatching due to too many things out of our control.
NO REFUNDS & NO RETURNS on hatching eggs. ALL SALES FINAL
Seller does not accept returns on eggs.
We will send tracking information as soon as eggs are shipped.
No shipping outside of USA
Due to the variability in incubators, and because I have no idea how you will handle the eggs once they are delivered, I cannot guarantee the eggs will hatch. All eggs offered for sale herein have been produced by our own proven stock. BUT there is still no guarantee on hatching eggs end result, anything can happen during shipping or your handling, incubation, humidity, too many factors and variables, so if our terms don’t work for you, do not buy from us.
Shipping Choices: Shipping is your choice either USPS Priority mail or USPS Priority Express, the Express will get quicker handling & delivery by your mail carrier generally to your front door, the Priority Mail method will add a few extra days transit to your shipment delivery time and will be delivered to your mailbox.
The US Postal Service will cover damaged or broken eggs, not us. If any eggs arrive damaged, you must report it to your post office promptly for a refund from them directly. All packages are automatically insured for $100.
Do not wash your eggs, do not rinse them, do not take a wet towel to them! You’ll wash off a special natural bacteria coating that protects the egg from perishing so quickly. (Why is the US the only country that washes chicken eggs for eating, when it only speeds up the perishability process? Remember egg washing is not recommended because Salmonella can move into the inside of the egg through pores in the shell, increasing the risk to consumers. Never wash an egg that is intended for incubation.
When you get delivery, slowly and carefully unpack your eggs and place them in a egg tray or carton and place them points down 12-24 hours to let them rest from their trip and allow temp of egg to adjust to room temp. You don’t want to put a cold egg in the incubator. These tips will help a lot w hatching, friends!
Prices are always PER egg.
No Minimum order for our Greater Rhea eggs.
