# Sell hatching eggs by the pack

To sell hatching eggs, choose **List eggs** on the **Eggs** tab of the Marketplace and pick one of your egg lots. You set the eggs in each pack and the pack price, and buyers choose how many packs to buy.

## Before you start

- You need eggs in an egg lot. An egg lot is a batch of hatching eggs in Genetics that your egg collections fill. See [Collect eggs from your flock](https://help.creatures.com/en/article/collect-eggs-from-your-flock-vhni3g/).
- Buyers can check out only after you verify your phone and identity. Until then, your listing saves as a draft you can publish later. See [What you need to start selling](https://help.creatures.com/en/article/what-you-need-to-start-selling-1wqmxje/).

You can also start from the egg lot with **List for sale**, or choose **Create egg offer** right after you save a collection.

## Choose the lot

1. Pick the **Egg lot**. Each choice shows how many eggs are free to list.
2. Enter **Physical quantity offered**: every egg you will hand over, extras included.
3. Keep **Sale format** on **Fixed price** to sell in packs. **Auction** sells the whole lot to one bidder, with no packs.

## Set up your packs

Under **Egg packs**, enter:

- **Paid eggs per pack**: the eggs the buyer pays for.
- **Promised extras per pack**: free eggs you add to every pack. The pack price covers both.
- **Minimum packs**, **Maximum packs** and **Pack increment**: how many packs one buyer can order, and in what steps. Leave **Maximum packs** blank for no limit.

A pack of 6 paid eggs and 1 extra uses 7 eggs, so 28 eggs make 4 packs.

Enter the **Price per pack** under **Listing**, with a title and description. For bulk discounts, add **Pack price tiers**: a **Packs from** count and a lower **Price per pack**. Counts must go up, and prices can't.

## Pickup or shipping

1. Enter your **Pickup or storage address**.
2. **Pickup only** is on at first. To ship, turn it off. Buyers then give a delivery address at checkout.
3. Turn on **Seller coordinates shipping** if you will send the eggs by carrier. Leave it off if you will deliver them yourself.
4. Choose a **Container required**, such as **Insulated egg shipper**.

Shipping and container costs are not part of checkout. Agree on them with your buyer.

Under **Shipping and guarantees**, set a **Shipping week, starting Monday** if you promise one, and your **Shipping timezone**. Open **Shipping exclusions** to list states you don't ship to, such as AK, HI. Buyers in those states can't check out.

## Offer a guarantee (optional)

Open **Optional guarantees** to offer terms for **Arrival**, **Fertility** or **Hatch**. Nothing is guaranteed unless you turn it on, so offer only terms you will honor. For each one, set:

- **Remedy**: **Refund**, **Replacement** or **Seller's choice of refund or replacement**.
- **Counted against**: which eggs the guarantee is measured on, such as **Paid eggs** or **Eggs assessed**.
- How many hours the buyer has to report. Fertility and hatch terms also ask which days of incubation count.
- Under **Proof the buyer should send**, tick what you need, such as **Arrival count** or **Photos**.

## Preview and publish

- Selling under an NPIP number (National Poultry Improvement Plan)? Turn on **I declare this sale under my NPIP identity** and fill in your details. This is your own statement, not a Creatures check.
- Under **Buyer preview**, pick **Preview packs** and, if you ship, a **Preview delivery state**. You see the exact charge and terms a buyer gets. Nothing is saved.
- Choose **Publish listing**.

## What happens next

Your eggs show on the **Eggs** tab, priced per pack, until the packs run out. To add newly collected eggs, open the egg lot and choose **Add eggs to this offer**. To change terms, open the listing and choose **Edit listing**. Orders already placed keep the terms they were bought under.
