Thanks, I'm proud of them. I got them from Cackle hatchery before I knew they color breed their EEs. I'm going to order some more this year.

What do you mean breed for color, as in color of the birds or eggs?

I got mine from there last year and love them.

They breed them for plumage color. They aren't just that dull partridge color that most hatchery EEs are.

Sorry! I need to rant and I know you guys will understand.

I mailed 3 packages on Wed. The plain priority mail package to TN is out for delivery and the other plain priority mail package to CA is at the PO and I am sure will be delivered today. Full trip scans available. The EXPRESS mail package to NY is no where to be found and the last scan was leaving Cincinnati at 9 PM on Wed. night!!!

I completely understand. It seems no matter how well they are packaged my local post office must give them shaken baby syndrome. I wish I could find a cheap device that would record how much something is shaken when shipped.

Our deliverer came last time with eggs and handed them to my kids. My husband happened to be standing there and the deliverer asked why we get all these packages with the word fragile on them. I said they were fertile eggs that we were hatching and his eyes got huge and said, well, I'll make sure to be extra careful. Isn't that the purpose if the word fragile? These people get paid a minimum of $15 an hour and they have no sense of customer service. Heck, they get my neighbors mail to my house all the time.

Just goes to show what a government agency can do for the people. Why is it that they call it 2 day priority when it isn't guaranteed in 2 days?

At least it seems mine are coming! I thank you so much! No if my postal lady doesn't kill them before they get here!!

My local post office is usually pretty good with fragile stuff, thankfully.

My local post offices are great. They get really mad when things like this happen. It is once the packages get into "the system" that the problems begin.

Yes, I am thankful there were no more delays for yours.

Sorry, lurking I'm trying not to cave on those marans eggs since 14 eggs got tossed out of the incubator today.
