fertile eggs on plane... 5/26/11 UPDATE... Ca. eggs are here in Ill. !

[mmaddie's mom]

Our trip to Ca. is just next month and I have some eggs lined up to bring home with me!

I love it when a plan comes together!

Any update? I'm trying to get the permits and vet inspection to bring some eggs home with me from England next spring and since I'm going JUST to pick up the eggs, I'd REALLY like to be able to get them here un-xrayed and carryon

 

[mmaddie's mom]

We are in CA. right now and will be picking up our eggs on Tuesday and flying on Wednesday!

I will definately keep everyone posted!

Hopefully I will have answers for everyone by the end of next week... at least about TSA and the travel portion of this eggsperiment... then we will see how the air pressure changes effect the viability of the eggs... that will take another 21 days after we get home. ;o)

More to come... stay tuned!

Today is the day the eggs FLY... hopefully!

The California eggs are here in ILLINOIS!

Give me a couple of hours (I need to go pick up my dog from my daughter's) and I will give details and tips on the Airplane Eggs blog...

Since we now know that the TSA/flying thing is do-able, I decided to start a separate thread on the incubation of the airplane eggs...

I will be anxious to see how this works out for you! We were in Ireland last September and was never able to get through the red tape to bring any back from one country to another. I'll be watching your adventure! ... and hope you can do it!
