hinkjc--- I got eggs

[beekybuzzard]

I just got back from the post office. Great job packing these eggs. 24 ordered and only 2 broken. It surely was not because of the packing, I don't think I've recieved any that were done better. Thanks again Jody I'll let you know when they start chirping. Have a blessed day. T C

I got 12 EE, all were safe, and 12 Araucana, of which the post office killed 4 ( thought only 2 at first but I was wrong). Going in the bator in the morning.

good luck.

Beekybuzzard, sorry to hear of the fatalities. You can be assured the po will find a way to break something that has fragile written all over it. Please keep me posted on how they do.

It is a shame that all of the people who get them in great shape don't post, but send me a PM instead. It's starting to look like every batch has a break, which is truly not the case. Altho here lately, the PO is doing a good job of it.

So depressing. I'd like to handle some of their personal packages like they handle ours.

postal worker here.

We do our best! (most of us anyway!)You'd be surprised at how some packages come in to us. I think alot get damaged inflight. But don't worry, I promise I'm not goin postal on ya!LOL!

 

[hinkjc]

Sorry bamagirl - I certainly didn't mean all postal workers are careless, but it does get frustrating sometimes. For every 1 package damaged, 10 get there fine. I just wish there was an easier way. This is the reason most breeders won't even ship eggs, which I am seriously considering stopping myself. After all, it is my babies in those boxes (even tho they aren't growing yet).

I was on pins and needles too

til my new day old chicks arrived! and I peeped in and made sure all were fine!

 

[beekybuzzard]

Definitely was not complaining here. I was very impressed with the care you took with the packing and labeling of these eggs. I don't know how it could have been better packaged.

Aw beeky...that's so nice to hear..thank you. I knew you weren't complaining, but it just irritates me when they break my baby eggs.
