    I got buff orp eggs from bamachicken. The post office must have had a field day with them. Two were cracked and the rest must have been scrambled. I have only one developing egg. Need lots of good luck to get this little one to hatch next week! [​IMG]


    Good news though.. my broody is out there clucking to at least one brand new baby. I wasn't expecting those eggs to hatch until later this week.

    It's sad, but Julie couldn't have packaged them any better.

    My first bator experience started Friday night. Despite leaving both my wife and my cell numbers with the post office- they did the "nice" thing and dropped them off- sat on our porch for hours since neither of us were home. Good luck, Keystonepaul

    Quote:I know it! My nice postal lady brought them to me, and told me to check them because they came to the PO in a big sack with the rest of the mail. I assume the ride was just too rough.



    Good news though, I checked my lone egg last nught and it was moving. I'm [​IMG] praying it hatches Thursday.
