I’m curious about how different breeders get their emu or ostrich sized eggs ready for shipping.
Do you:
Sanitize? Or do they have a bloom you want to keep?
Use foam or bubble wrap for cushion in shipping box?
One box or one box inside second box?

Thnx so much guys…
 
I double box mine. So, egg is wrapped in bubble wrap, goes in smaller box surrounded by pine shavings for cushioning. Then the smaller box goes in a bigger box surrounded by more pine shavings.

No sanitizing, they have a bloom like other eggs and they take so long to incubate, that's a lot of time for bacteria to get in the egg if it's washed off.
