👍👍 ha ha. Doom music ha ha just don’t get eggs delivered with a tractor ha ha. Fun video thanks for the laughs. Have a great day. Lisa@moneypit homestead
In tech class in like elementary school we had to do something like this! Lol we had to make an egg safe container and then our teacher dropped them off the roof!
Thanks for testing! We have to ship 1 fresh unfertilized egg to a friend. We were doing a live online estate sale at an 1800's farmhouse when one of their chickens walked up and popped one out in a planter for everyone to see. We signed it and sold it for $1 as per a request! 😁 🤣❤️
😂😅yall are cracking me up, Im in the car dying laughing and my husband mad cuz he driving and can’t see what Im laughing at. Well thanks to you both I know how to ship my eggs.
I bought 12 ayam cemani eggs online and when I got them they where all scrambled. Didn't know till day 10 in the incubator when I candled them and seen no sign of life. So rough handling can cause them to scramble as well.
You and your wife are the best!!! Both of you have great TH-cam voices and personalities and the best part, play and have fun together. Thank you for creating this video.
Best Egg packing video EVER! Good job! I swear, it seems like deliverymen Hit em' with a sledge hammers lol! I think half of the eggs I sent completely were destroyed! One seemed to have been in a boxing match! I think, no matter what, sending them specially FRAGILE is very important too! Maybe it was because I didn't send them Fragile and instead I wrote FRAILE on the outside and silly things like; "living thing in this box" lol! Thanks for the awesome video!
Reminds me of the time in school we had to come up with different ways to have an egg drop off the top of the building without it breaking! Good test cause I know some of the company's we ship through chuck packages at the wall ha! Pebbles is getting soo big now!
Pebbles is probably getting pretty close to full grown monster. I would hope that disgruntled post office worker would be nicer if he could hear actual live chicks hatching. I feel like thats too much. I kind of get the fragile sticker being a target for some stress relief. I've heard that not even marking them fragile can leave them with better treatment.
@@OldReddingFarm Thats what the postman said here, said your better off not putting anything on the package...and sorry, I mistyped, no chicks were hurt...it was meant to say "chuck", most of the time packages are good here, but on occasion you may wonder if whatever you bought made it
I think the big thing with the pool noodles is dependent on the cost of the noodle vs the cost of egg cartons. How many eggs can you pack into 1 noodle? If you went somewhere like a dollar store, could you maybe find the noodles for $1? I have no idea. lol But around here, egg cartons are $.40-50/each so if you can't find noodles for less than $5 then the egg cartons are probably the better option. This was a fun video to watch, you guys were clearly having a blast!
We actually had to call like 5-6 different places before we found any pool noodles at all! I imagine in the winter it could become pretty difficult to find them. Dollar tree was the first call I made because I was thinking dollar store pool noodles would be by far the best value. I don't think you'd be able to ship more than 12 or so with one noodle. But we haven't had to buy cartons for years most people know what we're up to and save them up for us and just give them to us.
whew 50-80 eggs is a ton of eggs!! I am not sure how to ship that many! the biggest flat rate box the post office has is large size and fits 3 dozen. I would think that shipping 80 eggs safely would require a really big box and it would end up so heavy the cost of shipping would be so very expensive
The most common number shipped is 12 + 1 or 2. Big difference between 4 egg weight. Much more kinetic energy involved. I’ve had good luck and bad luck with just breakage. The best I’ve received was double bubble wrap in shredded paper. I had some shipped last week in foam cut out that 6 of the 14 were broke not just cracked. Wyandotte eggs they seem to be thin shells vs Maran eggs. I have both and Maran eggs are always thicker unless the hens are getting old.
Well since we ship eggs using the method that came out the best in the experiment, we don't really have to repeat with a dozen or more eggs since we know how they do getting shipped all the way across the country.
The post office says the insurance doesn’t cover perishable item getting ruined. How do you get them to cover your eggs? I have someone wanting 12 doz a month! Help!
I have had eggs delivered or held at the post office. It is sad how they smash the boxes and eggs, really does make one wonder how they manage to inflict so much damage. My grandparents, RIP, retired from the PO, so I know not all those employees are psycho's, but there must be a lot of them by my experience.
Yes we sometimes will have boxes lost in the mail and the longer a box is in transit the more likely it is to be received on the other end smashed to smitherines . We have also pretty much concluded that the more you write "fragile" or "handle with care" on a box the more likely that box will be treated to some extra abuse :( we try to just let the boxes go and pack as well as we can and hope for the best! but if they get lost and spend 3 weeks in a sorting facility, there isn't really much hope :(
@@OldReddingFarm I am not hatching eggs, but can you make that much money with just regular eggs? And can I know may I know what platform you are selling them in?

You two made me laugh so hard tonight. That was brilliant testing. Oh and a whole lot of fun.
haha thank you!
Well now we know how the post office destroys packages!
Lol yah all the chaos we put these eggs through and how hard they were to break I can't imagine what the post office is really doing to the eggs.
More than you guys did no doubt.
Your two had entirely too much FUN with this video!!!!!!!
hah yah it was a fun one for us !
👍👍 ha ha. Doom music ha ha just don’t get eggs delivered with a tractor ha ha. Fun video thanks for the laughs. Have a great day. Lisa@moneypit homestead
Thanks, you too!
Catherine your laugh is so contagious. I absolutely love the intro and this whole video. You guys did a great job.
Hah thank you!!
Hi, this is disgruntled Gary and I'd like a word with you 😄
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
In tech class in like elementary school we had to do something like this! Lol we had to make an egg safe container and then our teacher dropped them off the roof!
I feel like I got robbed that we never got to do this in school. John said he thinks he did it but can't remember but I def. didn't get to do it.
I like the pool noodles, but recommend taping the ends of bagging them to keep the eggs within the noodle.
Yes that would solve the slipping out problem for sure.
Thanks for testing! We have to ship 1 fresh unfertilized egg to a friend.
We were doing a live online estate sale at an 1800's farmhouse when one of their chickens walked up and popped one out in a planter for everyone to see. We signed it and sold it for $1 as per a request! 😁 🤣❤️
This was so fun to watch 😁 for the pool noodle, you could tape ir together so that the egg stays in place and won't slip out.
Yes def! a good suggestion. We have about 2/3 of the pool noodle back and if we use it to ship eggs we will def. be taping it closed on the ends.
Love your scientific experiments... lol.
Thank you!
😂😅yall are cracking me up, Im in the car dying laughing and my husband mad cuz he driving and can’t see what Im laughing at. Well thanks to you both I know how to ship my eggs.
Haha thank you !! Good luck with your egg shipping adventures !
Good tests, take care and stay safe
Thanks!
Disgruntled Postal Workers really just want to be your friends.
Hah. Maybe if they would be more careful with our mail we would be better friends with them :)
Hahaha this is such a fun video!!!! Too funny!
Thanks!

Wow, thank you! So kind !
I would suggest taping the ends of foam wrap, so the eggs won't fall out.
The only issue I see is that all the "spinning and shaking" will internally break them, even if they are externally intact.
Yes could happen , but we control what we can and hope for the best from the post office
@@OldReddingFarm I was watching your video because I received DESTROYED eggs twice in a row... From 2 different people. It was pretty frustrating!
Love see you both and the way you tested different packaging is amazing, where you guys have this farm?
We are in CT
So much fun!
Thank you!
The stress test is fun! Thank you
Hah thanks we had fun doing it.
This was so much fun!!
Thank you!
The two of you are having way too much fun…. 😁

A test worth testing for
Lol yes, not that there is anything wrong with testing just for testing's sake. but this one is a fun one!
i dont and probably never will ship eggs but i love this video
Lol thank you ! That's good enough for us ! We had fun filming it
Thanks for this idea. How about shipping like 50 eggs or 80 eggs.
I shipped with full of bubble wrap but it is crack when it reach to costumer
whew 50-80 eggs is a ton of eggs!! I am not sure how to ship that many! the biggest flat rate box the post office has is large size and fits 3 dozen. I would think that shipping 80 eggs safely would require a really big box and it would end up so heavy the cost of shipping would be so very expensive
Cute video guys! :)
Thank you!
My favorite part was when the dog took it away...

Wait a second....how did you know the second box was the pine shavings before it was opened? I thought the boxes weren't marked...😅
You should try that with a dozen or more, I bet the outcome would not be this good
Well since we ship eggs using the method that came out the best in the experiment, we don't really have to repeat with a dozen or more eggs since we know how they do getting shipped all the way across the country.
Whats sad is Ive seen boxes look that crushed and it makes you wonder what the heck happens at the PO and in the trucks!
I even have had a box containing live chicks come in crushed (thankfully chicks were okay) but you would think they would be more careful!
It will be a pain to claim insurance from the post office
Yah we have filed a few claims over the course sometimes its not a problem but other times they make it really difficult.
Yes they are a pain to deal with.
How hilarious 😂
The post office says the insurance doesn’t cover perishable item getting ruined. How do you get them to cover your eggs? I have someone wanting 12 doz a month! Help!
They'll cover broken eggs if the box was damaged not cover the perishable issue if they were delayed. Hope that helps!
My postman goes wayyyy harder. I think the fragile stickers make them angry.
I hear that over and over that fragile stickers are basically a target for extra abuse

This was fun! But I've gotta ask who's paying $20 for a dozen egg's?
Oh this video is old. We're getting $80+/dozen these days! 🤠
Good idea. But I found it unuseful what if I have thousands of eggs. Really tricky
You're shipping thousands of eggs at once ? How many chickens do you have ?
@@OldReddingFarm I really have moreeee. 10,000 creats each creat has 30 eggs
Hey I would like you to ship eggs for me
Hi Darnell, you can order eggs from us on our website www.oldreddingfarm.com Thank you!
They aren’t full dozens so the tests aren’t valid. Trust me it matters
Okay thanks
I didn’t mean for that to sound so accusatory, appreciate the effort and the content. 👍
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Is your egg business still this profitable
Yup. The chicken hatching egg business in the farm is good!
@@OldReddingFarm I am not hatching eggs, but can you make that much money with just regular eggs? And can I know may I know what platform you are selling them in?
This is Huge.
Yuge!
