I have had eggs shipped to me quite a few times and it really is 50/50 as to whether those eggs get to you in one piece, I have eggs shipped perfectly and none hatch, eggs shipped not so good and hatched and a little bit in between! it's the luck of the draw on the sellers wrapping skills, temperature, age of eggs, health of parent birds and posties handling along the way, the worse must have been 12 quails eggs that arrived in a quail egg box with a piece of kitchen roll placed over them and then the box was placed in another box with shredded paper every single egg arrived damaged where they had not been secure in the box and had come out of the little sockets, some were cracked others completely smashed, yolk every where, initially the seller ignored me and then just sent a refund when I threatened with Paypal no sorry or nothing! there is always a risk you take with posting but I believe the seller needs to make an effort too, if you can clearly see their wrapping is not up to scratch then they should take responsibility, eggs should always be wrapped before being placed in boxes so they are held securely and not rolling around, it's common sense, strange thing was this seller had good feedback in shipping eggs so I didn't expect them to arrive as they did!
