You would be mistaken about bumping a reptile egg could cause death to the embryo. I'm not saying it can't happen, but I've seen a person drop a BP egg 3 feet and it still hatched (It was dropped as it was being pulled from the mom). So I doubt seriously that shipping an egg would cause it to not hatch, or at least the bumpyness of shipping the egg. I'm sure if the egg was packaged where it wasn't able to move much it would be just fine.... Heat on the other hand is a totally different matter.
