in my case it was just bad packing... no protection on the sides.

That happens.
Sorry for you !
Every once in a while I run into a shipper who just shoves a carton of eggs in a tight box, no packing & tapes it shut.
I got one such shipment with egg yolk running out all over the Post Office.
The PO had to put the box in a trash bag it was making such a mess.
Every single egg had clacked the egg next to it, every one was cracked.

The thing was each egg was wrapped perfectly, plenty of padding on the bottom and top of the GIANT box, no padding on the sides... so eggs just smashed into each other sideways.... if the eggs had been in a box in the GIANT box they would have been perfect! or even just padded on the sides... and I did advise the shipper about that.

But since they were loose inside a giant box with no side padding 16 were broken on arrival and 26 were pretty scrambled inside... which left me with 8 eggs that hatched...

andI do mean giant box.. $30 to ship

The "hole" in Audrey's heart is almost gone...the cardiologist said we don't have to take her back for any more EKGs or ultrasounds!

I'm so relieved! Now, I just need to sell my pair of Golden Laced Cochins, a trio of Light Sussex, a pair of bantam MFC's and a horny gander and my stress level will go down even more! LOL

Yes, those and many other situations. Just trying to make light of things. I guess it's my sick sense of humor. Helps to try to laugh once in a while. Still think we need to start a club. I don't mind being the only member.




Well you can count me in, I have those days too!! LOL! But, I think there are days when I probably act more like a "jackass" then a donkey!! LOL!!

Lately my greatest joy comes from watching my animal charges. Especially the dogs and chickens. Today I was amused watching Bella, our Welsh Corgi have a one on one with a full grown Blue Wheaten Marans rooster. She lives to get things running just so she can chase them but the roo would not back down. Face to face with his hackles raised he never turned and ran. Funny thing, finally one of his hens just came up and pecked Bella on the nose and she decided she was done with all that nonsense and walked off to do some lounging in the sun. That hen followed her and would not leave her alone! Just kept pecking at her! I guess the hen decided her man needed defending till the end. Hmmm, wonder if we need to learn something from these critters. Just sayin.

what a big bad herding dog!!! LOL!! Wow! that's a mean chicken!!! good for her!!
