Was wondering what the customary way in which those of you who ship eggs, ship them.  (Containers)   I have been looking to buy the foam shippers but have had no luck as of yet.

Gunner,

I pack my pheasant eggs in regular chicken egg cartons. I wrap the pheasant egg in polyfill that can be bought at any craft store, or use an old pillow, then I just place the chicken egg cartons, in boxes and off to the P.O. I've had good luck, no egg damage so far.

For quails, I have only seen the foam, the cardboard flats, and then the plastic egg cartons. Sorry yu couldn't get a hold of Larry. If using the plastic cartons, after filling with eggs, remember to line with napkin/toilet papper or shreded paper so the eggs won't collide during shipping. Here's some links. If for quail, make sure you get the quail ones.
