I have hatched EEs and Ameraucanas for Papa Brooder--The AMs did fine but the EEs did better.

They were hand delivered from Redding, so about 150 miles by car. Ok Truck pulling a trailer.

I have hatched two batches of hatching eggs from her flock and they did very well, shipped from Arkansas.

The Blue Cockerels are the two Roosters I hatched and the Splash is one of the Pullets:
