Dear Cyber-family:
Any ideas on sending hatching eggs overseas? My father is traveling to our homeland, Greece, for easter. My cousin raises birds there. Everything from exotics to chickens. He wants some of my birds. It would be impossible to send Ameraucanna birds there, but what about the eggs?
We wouldn't want to hide them in the suitcase because the cargo area would get too cold - Right?
Would the TSA confiscate them from his handbag?
I heard a tale, and I don't know if it's true, that some one had brought ahtching eggs withthem on a plane from here to Britain and when asked about them, he told the agents they were "easter eggs". Our eggs are colored and not white. The shells are remarkably hard. But I'd rather not lie.
We are NPIP certified and our eggs are free from disease so they would be safe.
What are your thoughts?
