Can brine shrimp eggs survive shipping in low temperatures? (As low as 8 F)

I’d like to start a hatchery but no stores near me have eggs in stock.

Low temperatures are even better for preservation, for long term storage it is advised to keep them in the freezer.
I even shipped a bag in the summer from across the world and got good hatching percentages.
Most important thing really is to keep them well packaged, preventing potentially wet air from getting in.

I recommend the Ziss Shrimp hatchery. Probably the the best hatchery available
I second the Ziss hatchery. Not only are they fantastic for hatching brine, they work great for phyto and pods. I have 11 running currently and purchase my brine shrimp eggs from Aquarium Co-op
