It could have gotten broken from a blow to the package, not necessarily from shaking. Eggs that do get a fruitless shake, very often will not hatch. The only opening you will know is by trying to hatch them. First use a dry cloth to wipe of all the goo and then clean it up beside water. Don't run it under water,and it is not advise to dip them in the water either, in recent times use a damp cloth and then a dry one to clean it up. Don't use hot hose, it should be about room temp...
I never heard of Duck eggs or anny ,being shipt trough the mail.
When we have eggs we where very care full next to them and rotated them twice a day in an incubator, also duck egg have to be raining,so we dip them in water, when we turned them around
No the broken egg will not kill them (In humour momy Duck has brocken an egg by misstake ,im sure)
the shaking in the mail probably
did
But next,I might be completly wrong.
butterfly is completely wrong they ship alot off eggs um sorry I don't know just needed to correct her
What you need to do is get some luke heat water and dip the eggs and then dry them off near a cotton cloth. Try not to handle the eggs to much as the oil from your finger tips will block and close the pores in the egg. It requests these open so oxygen can flow into the egg. They might or might not be dead. It sounds like at the completely least they have been shaken up a bunch. Good luck on getting anything to hatch. You might ask whether the eggs were insured?
Answers: When you receive your eggs that was shipped by mail they will usually enjoy some type of warrantee on them. I would check it out.I have hatched many duck eggs out next to no problem at all.Ducks are very hardy creatures. What you need to do is hose the eggs of in warm water after dry them,do this 1 at a time and no longer than 30 seconds in the water or showery for that long.If you do this longer than 30 seconds it will lower your hatch rate.After you wash them it would be a good belief to go ahead and put them in the incubator.If you do not have a turner contained by your model(incubator) You will have to turn them by hand 3 x a day and mist them once a year with a spray bottle.Make sure that the spay bottle has not be used for household cleaners.You will not loose all your eggs just because 1 egg has gotten busted.I need you luck.
