Now that's the kind of math I like.

Rumor has it they were shipped Monday. I bet your partner is glad he/she didn't wait until Tuesday to send them. USPS' tracking system is not very helpful either. The rumor is you have both pure and mixed coming with a chance to fulfill your hatching wish with some.

Don't hide. It's hard to be my snarky, sarcastic self on here without coming off as rude. I'm new at this too.

So a warning to all of BYC: if you think I'm being mean, ever... I'm not. Now... if you asked my residents/interns or new hires the same question, you'd get a totally different answer. At work, I'm cutthroat.

Oh no it's not you, it just occured to me that maybe Bhep and tuthillny really didn't want to know. Doesn't matter really, it'll still be a surprise, they could look like anything!

ETA, well almost anything, no emus or naked necks.

BTW, I DO want to know what I'm getting

Are you kidding !!!............. As soon as I got my addresses I started trolling to find out who I had, as soon as my eggs were unwrapped, I was trolling to see who they came from.

I think that is part of my fun, ya know like shaking your gifts to try and figure out what it is before you open it.

Nope...unwrapped and sitting in the tray, waiting for Sun.

I have such a pretty bunch of eggs. Can't wait for the rest of mine.

Beth,
The Iowa Blue eggs from Kari are the next generation from my flock. I bought my flock from her and she kept the offspring that she hatched. I just thought you might like to know.

Got my eggs!!!!

There were 9 beautifully colored eggs all packed in classified ads and bubble wrap. Housing looks cheaper in the Carolina's than here. The box had a few small bumps (the least amount of dents I've seen in my shipped eggs) and, sadly, two olive colored eggs cracked/dented. So I opened them up, found nice bulls eyes on unbroken yolks so I'm gonna assume all yolks made it in one piece!!! (nothing worse than undamaged shells with broken yolks.)
So, Thank You BHep!!!!!!
ummm, and uh, one unlabeled egg sure does look a lot like the eggs my silkie cross lays.... there wouldn't be a fuzzy wuzzy mixed in, or a

chickie who will need a scarf, would there???




sure hope my little eggs are being delivered soon... and they arrive ok.
