I don't know, but you can buy eggs in the states as part of your grocery shopping and take them home to Mexico and eggs is eggs really. Buy a dozen eggs for $2.18 and swap them out so you have 'eggs' on your grocery receipt. Do they check at the border to make sure all your purchases have valid receipts, Sheila? I've sold lots of things to people up from Mexico shopping, but have never been to the country.

I don't think I would have posted that I planned on sneaking eggs from country to country, talk about big trouble. Not only you but the person who sold you eggs will be in serious trouble too. Cath

Hi all- Had to change my membership info - but it is still me - Sheila in Mexico.

Here we donot have the HUGE sellection of different breeds that there is in the US.

I am contmpleting going to visit my Mother in Austin, ordering a dozen interesting various breed eggs and driving up to bring them back as if they were boiled eggs for lunch and incubating them in a brooder.

You have to be a bit divious here ...........

How long will a fertil egg last from ordering to putting in brooder ? What % of ordered eggs actully get to you in good condition and how many hatch if done right ?

Sheila - all excited by the idea !!
