If you have a comp and printer you can set up an account through USPS.com and shipping is cheaper... but otherwise the Medium flat rate box is smallest I would ever go for eggs and it's $13.85, I think... Large flat rate box is $18.65, or close to that, if you want to double box...

USPS stopped giving discounts with online shipping this year so you pay the same exact price online and at the PO

If you use paypal shipping you can get a discount still but only if the buyer has a confirmed address with paypal which most people don't (address yes confirmed no). Rates have gone up for shipping big time this year and most times I find myself spending more to ship than I am charging and that doesn't even include the shipping supplies I buy

I just sent out a package the other day and noticed there is no discount anymore for print n ship. What's with that?

There is no longer a discount for using "Click N Ship". You can still get a discount if you use 3rd party printing services like Stamps.com. However, the discount isn't much, and they won't (at least my local P.O. won't) refund on late Express shipments if either I use Stamps.com or the Express shipment contains live birds.

I love everyone and think everyone should raise chickens. I will never check your paperwork to ship you eggs or chicks if you are in this country.

It is very expensive and aggrivating to ship outside the US

Totally agree! I guess I meant does anyone outside the US sell in this thread. I'd never ship eggs from overseas Too risky and knowing our laws, perhaps not even legal!

I have an astrolop hen that is broody. Poor girl is putting all her efforts in a golf ball. I don't have any fertile eggs. My roo has been pulled to give the ladies backs a break. Does somebody have any LF fertile eggs I can have to give her. Don't have to be pure bred.

Would you like a few Ayam Cemani x Sapphire eggs? Haven't hatched any, no idea what the chicks might look like.

That sounds like a very interesting combo!
