Would you guys make a stink if....I bought 12 eggs from a lady on BYC. I candled them last night after I FINALLY got a light bright enough to shine through the shell and only 7 are fertile. The rest are clear and today is day 15. I sent her an email telling her that almost half the eggs were clear and she said "well I hope you have good luck with those". Now I paid for 12 FERTILE eggs and I did not get but 7. What would you guys do??

Not cool... I just wouldn't buy from her again. She doesn't sound like she cares...

I just sent her a polite email telling her that I am disappointed that I paid for 12 fertile eggs and only received 7. If she does not make it right, I will retract her feedback and leave a new one for her.

Very nice... I believe you went along the correct course of action. Hopefully she will be kind enough to make right

Well I'm off to bed! Nite!

I bought some turkey eggs off eBay in October or Nov last year when I first started incubating. The white hollands. Spent over $40 on eggs and shipping and day 3 all 8 had bacteria and started smelling by day 7... Had to chunk them! I was so unhappy and the guy could care less

Well I could expect that from an ebayer but a BYCer? I thought we were all better than that

I recently bought some blue and red cochin eggs, not a one is fertile. I also bought 32 BO eggs about two months ago, I hatched out a big 3 from those. Then I had 18 polish eggs, not a one hatched. And those were important to me. But oh well, I think its just the luck of the draw with shipped eggs. Or my luck who knows. This has probably been my worst winter hatching eggs so far.
