How it works
From egg set to pickup
One place for the records that tell you what you’ll have, and the reservations that sell it.
Five steps, one season
Keep your records
Log egg sets, candling and hatches, or colonies and splits. Your projections come from your own numbers.
Set up your store
Add breeds, nucs or queens, then your hatch dates and pickup days, each with a capacity and an order cutoff.
Open reservations
Buyers reserve with a deposit, no account needed. The balance is charged automatically before the event, after a reminder.
Hatch, sort and hand off
Record the hatch. If it’s short, reallocate in one step. Buyers pick up with a code, or you ship with the rules checked.
Get paid
Payments go straight into your own payment account, and reach your bank on its normal schedule. We keep only the buyer fee.
Questions sellers ask
Do my buyers need an account?
No. Buyers browse and check out with an email and a phone number. If they want the records of what they bought, they can accept them into a free account.
Who is the seller?
You are. Steadfolk is a venue: you’re the seller of record, and we never take ownership of your animals.
Can I collect the balance in person?
Yes. Choose “deposit here, balance at pickup” and collect the rest however you like. The buyer fee is charged with the deposit.
How do the shipping rules work?
Clear, cited rules, like ship days for live birds or an active bird-flu suspension in the buyer’s state, stop checkout with the reason and a link to the source. Anything less clear is a warning you acknowledge. The rules are guidance, not legal advice.
Can I get my data out?
Your records are yours. A free, full export of them is coming with the records tier.
