You don't have to overnight them if you don't want to...I find it's quite expensive and priority usually only takes 1 day longer. I'll leave it up to you though.

as I said I will get back to you.. and I will check on the mountain quail eggs. I prey my husband lets me do this

 

[KellyHM]

LOL, or you could just pull my trick and let them "show up" in the bator...my hubby never looks in there anymore anyways.

geeezzzzzz I wish my husband was like that... he monitors everything in the incubator.. I put a unfertal dove egg in there once, and he freaked out.. what the hell is that?? << my husband

How long have you been hatching eggs? The longer it goes on the calmer he should get. My bators have been plugged in for 8 months straight, so DH finally just gave up.

My husband is of German decent.. they never give up

.. lol I spoke to him this morning, and he wants to check the fertility of the ones in the incubator ( as I thought he would ). Then let you know. We need to add a new blood line to ours at some point. I know this is a go. I will e-mail you my info for future use. He's shocked that you want eggs that are 5 days old, then another possably 3 days for shipping..... I tried to explain with little result

.... I will plan on collecting, and then shipping gambles quail eggs in 2 weeks... that will be on June 8?

LOL, your husband cracks me up and I don't even know him! I've mailed eggs out that were a week old (of course the person knew it and got them cheap) and they did almost just as well as ones I mail out that are 3 days old. Studies show that egg fertility is the same for about the first 5-6 days, then drops and stays the same until about 9-10 days. So if you mail on day 3 and they get here day 6 it's really not much different from mailing on day 5 and them getting here day 7-8.

June 8th will be fine.
