Re: Tips on sending eggs out of the country??

Tips on sending eggs abroad.
1) Use padded bags.
2) Use newly laid eggs. They travel better.
3)Label the eggs, and also enclose a covering letter in a plastic bag in
case the labels become un-readable.
4) Customs declaration. Mark as "sterile peat with live fish
embryos.Non-CITES. Gift. Value=zero."
5) Check temperature of recipients home country.It is easy to forget that
Hawaii is warmer than Sweden, etc.
