So i was really getting freaked out when my egg's didn't arrive yesterday but they got here today about 5pm roughly an hour or so after the normal mail. so i'll be setting a day late for the cino de mayo HAL

I think most of my post people around here are NFL rejects that like to pretend that they are throwing the winning goal but not with a football with my packages. I was getting ready to cook dinner when a sound a kin to someone kicking my door rang through the living room, I thought one of the neighborhood kids had just over shot a goal and had hit my door with a soccer ball. But when i opened my front door to throw the ball back i realized it wasn't a ball at all. It was my egg's from Meyers With very clear not 1 but 3 FRAGILE Hatching egg stickers on it!! But thank goddess meyers had packed the egg with enough Styrofoam to sink a ship so all the egg's are OK to my knowledge.

On a second note my Automatic egg turner experiment failed. I had saw a video on you-tube on how to make one but when i had tried i couldn't figure out how to attach the wood to the tiny gear on the motor. If the wood attached to the gear doesn't turn the egg's don't turn. So now i'm stuck, my homemade incubator is too small for a commercial egg turner not that i would have enough money to buy one if it could fit. I'm kind of mad but their really is nothing i can do but return the motor and turn the eggs by hand and hope everything else goes ok with the hatch.
