- The hatchery buys eggs at a discounted rate from GroChick
- The Hatchery receives the fertile eggs
When the hatchery receives eggs, the eggs should immediately be placed into an incubator with the trays lying flat and the incubator turned off to allow for the albumin in the egg to settle.
- The Hatchery loads day-old chicks onto their GroShop
The Hatchery should use a throughput rate of 53% to hatch out day-old chicks. This number of chicks should be loaded onto the Hatchery’s GroShop in boxes of 100 each.
- The Hatchery should communicate with a friendly GroChick representative
When the products are loaded onto the system, the hatchery should notify a friendly GroChick representative so that the GroChick representative can place an order for the day-old chicks. This order represents a digital contract for the supply and delivery of the chicks.
- GroChick buys back the chicks
A friendly GroChick representative will place an order on the hatchery’s GroShop
- The Hatchery needs to grade chicks after they hatch
The Hatchery needs to separate chicks into boxes with mass <35g these are classed as B grade and >35g these are classed as A grade chicks. This is in the case of Broiler chicks.
In the case of layers or Potch all sizes are welcome. Just make sure that the physical appearance matches with the A-Grade and B-Grade chicks using the link to follow. Learn more - GroChick collects the day-old chicks or hatchery delivers
GroChick will send a vehicle to collect the chicks from the hatchery to collect day-old chicks. Day-old chicks need to be packed into cardboard travel boxes and these boxes should be graded before collection/delivery.
- Funds clear from escrow within 48 hours
After collection, the Hatchery needs to change the status of the order in the Store Manager to “Completed”. The Hatchery needs to select the payment option in the Store Manager. When an order is set to “Completed” an automatic withdrawal request will be sent to the Admin Desk. The Admin Desk will verify that the delivery was completed and either accept or decline the withdrawal. If collection is not made and the order status is changed to completed then the hatchery account will be suspended. If the collection is made then the transaction will be accepted and funds will be released.
