The Great Egg Shipping Experiment!

With the Spot Check do you leave it in the bator ? Or do you just occasionally check to ensure the temp is staying consistent ? And if your using a water snake I assume you leave that in the bator the whole time so it has the same temp as the eggs correct ?

This was an amazing thread to read! Timely too because I just got my shipped eggs yesterday. Thanks all for the years of experience everyone poured out for us all to share in.

I have a question for anyone willing to offer an opinion. I shipped eggs on 2/11/14 2 day priority (not guaranteed per usps) it is now 2 /15/14 and they have not been delivered. On top of all that monday is a holiday. As the shipper (and at one time being on the receiving end) what should I do?

Do you have a tracking # for them? I just received eggs from Arkansas yesterday, they were shipped Tuesday. Tracking info was not updated until the night before they arrived. I have called a 1-800 number for usps before (not for eggs or anything time sensitive) but they got right to work finding out where the package was. Good luck!

Yes I have a tracking #, hasn't been updated since the 12th. The person I shipped to has stated they did not received them. They won't be delivered tomorrow since it's Sunday and Monday is a holiday. I just don't know if I should offer the person more eggs cor the cost of shipping or wait to see if they get them and hope somsthing develops.

Where are you shipping from and to? That would be my deciding factor on sending more eggs or not or refunding and trying again in a week or so.

Everyone knows you cant control the PO, but I personally would want to make things right! If you have the package insured I would also talk to the PO about that
