aww sorry to hear about loosing the hens.

My daughter also wanted a goose, but of course you need more than 1. :D Well, the osceolas were a wash, none developed. I threw them out this morning.

I think sometimes they do destroy the "fragile" boxes intentionally. It's a shame since postage is so high these days and on fragile things there is often no replacement policy other than to hit the post office up for it. The sellers will say they will not replace, not all, but some. I do...

It's been 8 days and I have no development :( I think it's a wash. I'll keep them for another few days to be sure.

LOL funny you mention geese. We got 3, 2 month old African geese a few weeks ago and my 1.5month old turkey poult hates them! He's way smaller than they are but will display by dropping his wings and tip toeing. The geese do not tolerate him at all so I have to watch them when the poult is...

I get up this morning and check the eggs in the incubator to find all of the osceloa's have been put in a bowl and sitting in a hatcher my husband just made. I couldn't figure out why he did it other than maybe the weight of all my turkey eggs was stopping the turner in the new incubator(there...

My box fiasco has been the talk of the local post office. I live in a small town obviously haha! My weekend mail lady stopped in today to ask me how the eggs were when I opened the box. Maybe the postal workers were taking bets..

I am not sure if the seller insured it, but I doubt it. I figure you really take a chance on shipped eggs, it's a gamble in more than one way. I bought 30 cortunix eggs and 15 were smashed, when I informed the seller his response was he would pack them better next time..not as in let me...

I have 12 mixed heritage turkeys in the incubator now, plus the 6 Osceola from the mutilated box, 10 pheasant eggs, 10 cortunix eggs and 6 mille fleur chicken eggs. I'd love to add more but I'm stuffed right now! I candled the Osceola last night and found one of the 6 has a hairline crack...

I will try to keep up with the thread and let you guys know how the eggs progress and what hatch rate I get.

I think the post office entered this box into the annual post office Olympics. I cant image how much weight they tossed on this poor box with my Osceola eggs in it :( I will say, the seller did an amazing job packaging. Each egg was generously wrapped in bubble wrap and packed in shredded...
