It's a gamble. Are you a gambler?
People have good luck with shipped eggs and some disasters.
I had 26 eggs shipped and 1 hatched. I shipped 14 eggs to someone and 11 hatched.
I saw a video of the sorting process at the USPS distribution center. Nobody mishandled packages but they travel gently down several conveyors and then tumble into bins. I imagine if the bin is nearly full there won't be much of a jolt. If it's empty when the package arrives I imagine it's quite a shock.
If you really want that rare breed and find a good breeder that packs well I say go for it.
What are your options? Drive across the country for a dozen eggs?
