Thanks, h2o, but mostly what I'm seeing there is how to correct air cell issues with shipped hatching eggs, not a description of how to ship eggs. I thought I might try to ship some eating eggs to my son or daughter, not for hatching, but just to make sure they arrive intact.

Maybe put the egg cartons in a larger box with packing peanuts or crumpled newspaper to absorb shocks.

Thanks. I bet the UPS store will know, huh?

I put a little bit of shredded paper into the egg carton before the eggs go in, put the eggs into the carton and "fill" with shredded paper the rest of the way and close. In the shipping box put down shredded paper first, lay the carton of eggs into it upside down and fill the rest of it with shredded paper. Kinda pack it in and tape shut.

Thanks, Troyer! Sounds like a plan. Then I will overnight them so they arrive fresh. I've been getting at least 16 a day and don't have quite enough customers for them!

Seeing as how I cant make up my mind must mean its not the dog for us. Its probably as good as any too.

Too big. Can you imagine taking it in to the grooming parlor for a nail trim. ESP if you can’t socialize the dog.
