Title: 2 week old eggs in mail hatching
Post by: Britton Howe on September 01, 2006, 09:27:28 PM
well it looks like  i might get a few to hatch I,ve had 3 hatch 1 other died trying to hatch and about 4 other ones with pip holes. I'm still hoping I will end up with 50% but thats probaly asking to much. right now those 3 that have hatched are worth about $16.36 ea.

So you have 2 week old eggs of some kind that are hatching in the mail and are worth $16.36 each?  I don't get it, but I want in on it. Care to clarify more?

$16.50 each meaning he probably payed around $50 for all the eggs and only had the three hatch...I think. So it would be around $16.50 per bird  :laugh: lol.

update I can't belive it make it 25 of them to hatch. these are the mexican speckled bobwhites. I thought I would be lucky to get any. I have had two others die while hatching and it looked like there was another 3 trying to hatch. now I got my moneys worth.

I'm tickled that your tickled with your hatch. 

Did these hatch in the mail or did you hatch them in your incubator?
