Excellent Casey!  With this many you'll be able to hatch a few and make a lovely cake with the remainder :)

Well, you have to over estimate, just in case some get cracked in the post :)

I have two incubators, though my RCom 20 should be able to handle 22 of these eggs, they are pretty small.

They sound like you will have some lovely birds then.  I've never had any dotties but they are very attractive birds.  Best of luck and lets see some photos when they hatch.
