Renee, I would ask the seller to put off shipping the eggs if at all possible until you get your bator back. I ALSO suggest finding some more local eggs, via BYC searching and asking, Craigslist (place an wanted ad in farming NOT in wanted section) and last and I have found is a wonderful source is to hook up with locals through BYC have you found your local thread and introduced yourself yet? you will need to go and search for your state or local thread in this area of byc like I am on a PA UNITE thread and its wonderful source of local help and finding birds chicks etc! EGGS!!
https://www.backyardchickens.com/f/26/where-am-i-where-are-you OHIO is full of some wonderful chicken breeders of QUAILITY chickens too!!
I would set some LOCAL NOT SHIPPED eggs in with the blue wheats when you get them, that will give you a better idea of how good or bad your incubation procedures are, and its ALOT cheaper to learn this way too, you can always sell the chicks on cl or even through the site to your locals!
