I live in Illinois & have been looking at hatching egg auctions a lot recently. If we can get a decent hatch rate, I think this is a great way to freshen the blood of our flock. BUT I don't know how far is just too far to ship from. I've seen sellers in California, Texas, & Florida that I'd love to purchase from, but then I worry about the time in transit and the temps this time of year.
I'd love to hear from folks with experience hatching shipped eggs...
What's the farthest away that you've bought eggs from? How was your hatch rate? Was it at this time of year? Would you do it again?
