Why not put them in egg cartons, then pad around with crumpled paper?

That was my next question..............

ummm not really sure but what about bantam, 2 blown for 1 hatching/ chicken 3 blown for 2 hatching/ and duck 1 for 1 ?

what about gentlely wrapping the shells in saran wrap? twist the ends?

I tend to agree with that, I dont know if you guys have seen how much people on Etsy charge for blown eggs, but it isnt cheap....

ETA: of course add extras in case of breakage as with hatching eggs

I bought 3 blown goose eggs from E-Bay 2 yrs ago, I didn't think to keep any of mine when they were laying.

But they were bubble wrapped and put in a medium priority box and made it safely to me. But there were no extras.

Those peafowl are pretty, but they sure make a racket. Lots of them running around Florida. They were trying to thin them out on Anna Marie Island.

They sell blown eggs on ebay, might check their for pricing estimates and how to ship the blown eggs.

Just checked ebay:
a doz blown chicken eggs at $8-10.
30 Quail are $15 & 50 eggs for $24.
Didn't see duck eggs
Goose eggs, 8 eggs for $24

So figure out what you want per fertile hatching egg.........

I get 45$ a dozen+ ( usually 14-15) shipping included ( which is typically 13-14$) I just want to be fair. So at Ebay prices it puts it right about where Taz cat said Thank you!
