Agri Health Ceramic Eggs - Pack of 4 Dummy Nest Eggs

Agri Health Ceramic Eggs are fake, solid ceramic eggs supplied in a pack of four for use in brooders, nest boxes and chicken coops. They are best for poultry keepers and smallholders who want to encourage hens to lay in the right nest box, settle broody birds or bring young pullets into lay.

Because they are ceramic rather than plastic, they have a realistic weight and a smooth, wipe-clean surface that stands up to repeated use around the yard.

FAQ

What are ceramic eggs used for?
They are placed in nest boxes or brooders as dummy eggs to show hens where to lay, to help settle broody birds and to discourage laying in unwanted corners of the coop.

How many eggs are in the pack?
Four ceramic eggs are supplied in each pack.

Are ceramic eggs better than plastic ones?
Ceramic eggs are solid and heavier, so they feel closer to a real egg and are less likely to be pushed out of the nest. They also wipe clean easily.

Can I leave them in the nest box permanently?
Yes. Many keepers leave dummy eggs in place all season, removing them only for cleaning or if an egg becomes damaged.

How do I clean ceramic eggs?
Wash with warm soapy water, rinse and dry fully before returning them to the nest box.

Can they be used for decoration?
Yes, the eggs can be used in displays, baskets and craft projects as well as in the coop. They are not food and should be kept away from young children.
