3rd Annual NYD Hatch "Designer" Egg Swap Thread

[mrheinz77]

I sent 7 and 8 eggs.

I think I sent out 8 or 9 in my box. Lucky I even got that many with all the slacking going on here.

Now duck eggs on the other hand......... I had plenty

Even they are starting to slow down. Was getting 15 a day, down to 9-10 a day.

I really hope things have "evened" out. I am experiencing a similar thing with someone I love as well; an adult.

Thank you. My son seems to be getting better and back to his normal talkative self. I hope that your situation gets better soon as well.

Here's my tracking #'s Daron yours is 0311 2550 0003 2476 5194 you have 9 or 10 but you only had 3 designer eggs it's very cold here for us and I hope they all hatch the others are very good layers my beautiful New Hampshires.....none of my stock is from hatcheries

Jim you had 8 or 10 ship I just filled the boxes up you were a little luckier my Blue Coppers are laying better and your extras are New Hampshires also.

I promised 6, but sent to 12 (!!) to New York. The hens are barnyard crosses, one is an easter egger. The Roos are a pure banty and a purebred white silkie.

Hopefully the eggs won't freeze!

Thanks for the heads up about what to expect from the mystery eggs! They are in the turner now....

I only sent out 6 eggs in each box, cause i was stingy and kept the extras for myself.

 

[anderson8505]

(I think) I sent 10 instead of 6 because I know my hatching rate with shipped eggs is pretty bad and I want many live chicks to hatch for h..... oh, nevermind I can't say who it is....

(I say 'I think' because while I was wrapping eggs my husband was giving UPS an earful because they are STUPID, and I taped the box up without counting the eggs.)

You got that right! Fex Ex is too. I've lived at the same place for 16 years now. My place is the last one on a very long driveway. There are 2 abandoned trailers, (no windows, weeds as tall as the trailer, porch caved in, etc.) before you get to my place and guess where they ALWAYS leave my packages? On the caved in porch of one of those trailers! You can't even get to the door and they leave my packages there. If I know someone is going to send something through them, I use my sister's address in town, but every now and then someone will say they're sending thru USPS and they really meant UPS or FedEx and I literally have to beat the bush to get to my package. Complaining does no good either.
