Your right Dipsy, This girl was the sweetest ever. She even lowered her original price for the eggs because she knew I wanted them. I just feel she was new at shipping eggs and I was the 1st to expiriment on. I just feel that there are too many posts on here on how to and not how to ship eggs. I feel like she put no effort really into protecting the eggs. Which upsets me...that I put alot of money into the eggs and I feel as though i was in a way no cared for as a customer in protecting something i paid for. Do you know what I mean?

I wish those who would sell eggs would simply look at how you ship them Lisa. Melissa packs the same way. Two days from South Carolina to Arizona, all 16 eggs in perfect shape.

I sent her a messege this is what it reads.

I just wanted to let you know that all the eggs that did arrive unbroken in the mail were infertile. 1 had a hair line crack from being busted that we didnt detect and the others simply INFERTILE. I know that you take a chance when accepting shipped eggs and taking the good with the bad. I just think (AM NOT BEING RUDE OR MEAN IN ANY WAY) That the eggs where not packaged properly. They arrived quickly in 2 days That was such an A+ but to have spent as much as I did and recieved nothing is a bit of a disapointment. I suggest you do a search on BYC for how to package eggs properly the next time so your eggs arrive in good shape. I don't mean to take anything out on you and I am not I know the P.o. Does a job on those packages but I feel that if the eggs where better packed they would have arrived in better condition.


I didnt wanna sound mean so I hope it does not come across as such.

How do you know that the eggs were infertile?

There are many reasons why shipped eggs dont develop, not just because they are all infertile. The yolks can break, the membranes can tear, and the air sac could bust, causing the eggs not to develop.

We cracked the eggs open today they never developed and on the yolk that was still intact looked just like a fresh egg you get out of the fridge there were no bulls eye on either side of the yolk.

Oh yes I understand that happening, I knew that information I say they were infertile because they were no bullseye on either side of the yolk.

Ive also read somewhere on here, cant find it now, that the eggs that were shipped may not even look fertile after shipping them.

Really?

I'd like to know if this is true if so I'd like to apologize to her for the post in saying they were infertile then.

Any links?

Thanks sundown for that I didn't even know that! Good to know now so I don't make the same assumption again. I am sending her another e-mail to apologize for that.
