What shipping service did you use? U.S. mail? UPS? Other?

I was the other person who sent warmfuzzies eggs and I have had no other problems with any of the eggs that I've shipped. I paid for 2-3 day priority from the usps for warmfuzzies eggs and sent them from Indiana.

wow looks like something had a big party inside that box! what a mess! I can only imagine your face when you opened up the box and saw that slop inside, I don;t know if i would laugh or cry if I got a box like that!

Check out this link. I am referring to the part about refunding shipping or filing a complaint.

I just noticed that several of the eggs that did not break are seeping liquid out of the pores.

thats just terrible! You know, the P.O. should take better care, and READ whats printed on the boxes that they ship!! I'd be furious too

, how stupid can they be.
I got some hatching eggs from Gracefulbantams, and boy did she ship them well also, plus the box had Hatching Eggs on it, they couldn't miss it! thank god our letter carrier is so sweet, she would let that happen on her end. Can you believe over a week to get to you??? What, its not Christmas or anything, wonder what held them up???

I think if you paid for 2-3 day priority that the post office will give you your money back on the shipping of them. I could be wrong. Just check with them and see.

Don't you love Colorado postal service!!! I tracked some eggs I ordered and they left Denver on Sunday. Well I haven't got them yet and I am only 2 hours from Denver! I always wonder what they do with things in Colorado Springs and Denver!!!! It drives me crazy! I should of got them yesterday! I can mail things to the east coast and they get there in 2 days and if you mail something in Colorado it takes a week to get just across town????

I would be like you and would sure hate not trying to hatch them....If it were me I would try the ones that look half way decent.
I may be in your situation if I don't get my eggs soon.

Where in Colorado are you??? Just curious if we deal with the same Post Office!! haha!!

 

[warmfuzzies]

No, I dont think its the same post office.

We live down in the SE corner. I still dont see how it can sit in Colorado Springs for four or five days and then still take two or three days after that to get here!
