Can a gravid female be transported without risking her eggs?

[wilomn]

I had a female shipped to me earlier this year from across the country that was in fact gravid. She had her pre-lay shed 3 days after arriving.

5 Eggs
1 Viable
4 Slugs

The one did in fact hatch out, but I have little doubt the travel is what doomed the others.

A slug is an infertile egg.

An infertile egg will not hatch no matter what is done to it.

I have little doubt that were they truly slugs, travel had nothing to do with their not hatching.
