A trip to the breeder should not only be informative but allow you to put some thought and preperation in how to get the eggs home safely.
You should be able to see the pair responsible for the eggs. You should be able to make some enquiries about the ages of their breeding flock and their provenance.
One would prefer to do much the same for clothing for example. It's always helpfull if one can try the garment on, check that the material is as described, how the garment looks on etc. If one is prepared to do this for a piece of cloth which may only last that fashion season then it seems almost lunacy not to do similar with a live creature you may, if you picked right, be living with for the next ten to twelve years that you will come to care about more than any piece of clothing you've bought.
Make the journey. You know it makes sense.
