Is this to good an opportunity to miss?

Actually marking the eggs with breeds probably won't help you much unless they hatch in spurts and you catch them as they do, you might just come out to chicks and empty eggs not knowing who came out of what!

I went ahead and did it anyway I can tell the breeds apart very easily when they hatch as they all look very diffrent and egg color is diffrent also.

You'll be very happy you got them and hatched out the babies. Mine are all looking great and strong!!
Good luck!!
