Shipped eggs

[peafowl_Lover]

Hi, I have the chance to pre-order some silver pied eggs. How well do pea eggs ship in general. The eggs are around 278 km from my house or a 3 hour drive. I'm still just thinking about it before I pre order as I don't want to waste money on eggs that won't hatch due to shipping.

Eggs don't handle being shaken up well. I presume you're going to pick them up yourself? In that case, I'd wrap them up in a quilt or a couple of quilts. You could put them then in a box and seat belt them in.

When you get home, set them small end down in egg cartons for 18-24 hours at room temperature before putting them in the incubator. That will let the air cell go back where it belongs.
