    Not to mention how does he know what's in the eggs? Lol how does he know it's BELS in those eggs..... Sounds fishy to me.... He could send u a clutch of normals and you wouldn't know until they hatched.

    reputable breeders not only hatch their eggs out to make sure the babies are healthy, most of them want the babies to have 3 consecutive feeds before selling.

    That's because he also has a part time job as a psychic, probably gives good deal on that too.

    Lol I was going to ask the same. There's no way of telling what could come out of a clutch until they hatch! Especially combos. I would say scam big time..

    I would say the only thing you have here is a 100% chance to be scammed.
    Electric incubators?
    As in a plug in incubator that needs plugged in at all times?
    They will need quite an extension cord....

    Man, that deal smells worse than last weeks leftover seafood dinner!

    Pretty much like the deal I had a chance at when I was breeding cockatiels. Somebody said they had cockatiel eggs in all colors for $10 plus shipping. I feel sorry for any fool who thought for even a second that was legitimate. For one thing, it would be nearly impossible to properly ship any living creature in the egg. Pressure changes, temperatures, etc. mean most would die in shipment unless they were sent by ground. Even with ground shipping, the bumping and jostling would scramble anything in those eggs.

    Not to mention, just like with snakes, there is no way to tell what would hatch out if by some miracle one survived the shipping.

    And what if after you get them, none of the eggs hatches, then what ? What guarantee does he offer ? Ask him for a guarantee in writing stating the eggs will hatch and what they will contain. I'm curious to see if he'll offer that. But whatever you do, DON'T be foolish enough to send him any money.

    Its a classic scam tactic you see on Craigslist a lot. Saying it would be scamming a scammer.
