Fertile Hatching Eggs (Poultry)

I breed rare, heritage and unusual breeds of poultry in Canada. I ship them by Canada Post (within Canada only) according to their guidelines. My question is... am I allowed to sell fertile chicken eggs on eBay? I am aware that eBay says there are restrictions, but I can't find any further information (although that could be because I'm on dial-up and it's difficult to search everything.)

 

Thanks for your assistance!

What kind of hatching eggs do you have

Here's ebay's policy on wildlife:

I am already aware of that linked page but sorry the page just doesn't answer my question. Firstly, I am not looking for info on wildlife. Secondly, as I indicated in my original post I already know that selling fertile hatching eggs (poultry) is "restricted" but I still don't know IF I am allowed to sell them on here. As far as I am aware there are no restrictions from me selling fertile hatching eggs within Canada outside of the eBay world; therefore I feel that I should be able to sell then on eBay. I am asking those who actually know the answer (rather than referring me to the page that confuses me and does NOT answer the question) "Am I allowed to sell fertile poultry hatching eggs in Canada on eBay Canada." If not, what are the specific restrictions that don't allow me to do so?

Thanks for trying though!

Do you breed Ameraucana or Araucana?
How can I order eggs from you?

I did breed True Ameraucana from excellent lines but I have sold almost all of my stock as we are putting the farm up for sale in May. All I have left are 12 Black Orpington roosters, a pair of Buff Orpingtons, 1 Blue Orpington rooster, 10 Barred Rock roosters, a Golden Laced Wyandotte rooster, 2 pairs of Silver Spangled Hamburgs and 2 pairs of Red Shouldered Yokohamas - all are approximately 1 year old. I don't ship birds and apparently I'm not allowed to sell eggs or poultry on here. I have been trying for years to find out why I can't sell fertile hatching eggs on here if I am allowed to ship them via Canada Post throughout Canada from Nova Scotia but I have not yet been given an adequate response from eBay professionals. I do advertise on Kijiji, which I believe is essentially eBay, so it makes no sense to me. So sorry I can't help you further. I know there is a HUGE demand for it here and it is allowed in the US.
