basically i want a pump, but the egg will not be in water so need to suck it up out of a pallet, then move it.

If you want to "suck up an egg" i.e., one egg at a time, try a canister type vacuum cleaner with a (plastic?) tube(s) for attachments.  Omit the attachments but place a cloth screen (cheese cloth?) in the tube opening taped in place outside the tube.  After reaching into the pallet to get an egg and moving it to where you want to deposit it either shut off the vacuum cleaner or open the slide opening that some tubes have to reduce vacuum or block the discharge for only a moment to release the egg.  Good luck.

If you're going to relocate the eggs, please do NOT rotate them or change their position. Unlike bird eggs, turtle eggs need to stay in one position throughout the incubation period. \nYou can try putting them in a container filled with sand, and add more sand to cover them. Then place the container in an undisturbed place where the amount of sunlight and direct sun exposure is approximately the same as they have now. All you can do afterwards is wait; make sure that the substrate doesn't get too dry (keep it under similar conditions as your yard has now). Incubation will last a few months, depending on the species and environmental conditions.\n\nI have to be honest: there are not many chances that these eggs will develop normally and/or hatch, but if they're going to pave the yard, that's about their best opportunity.\nOf course, if there is any wildlife rescue unit near your place, you should contact them. \n\nRemember: do not rotate the eggs or move them any more than it's strictly necessary. \nGood luck!

Consider where the egg is strong.  An egg will support over 100 pounds in one direction and can be crushed by most people's hands in the perpendicular direction.  Set the egg such that it will not rotate inside the frame.  Try to secure the egg at the strong points.  Weight the frame so that it falls with the strong point down.  Use air resistance to encourage the placement in free fall.  I have seen soda straws used well.  I have also seen other means.  A crush-able device will absorb a lot of impact.  Give the egg time to slow before stopping.  Springs have also been used.  I guess you could surround the egg with springs inside a semi-crush-able container.  The crush would absorb a little while the springs got the rest.  Think: springs don't have to be made of metal.  Get creative.

Eggs are very strong at their point. Weight the tip to hit at the point.  Bubble wrap the tip.  Think of an extension that is spring loaded with a weight at the end.  The balance of the container just has to protect it from bouncing.

Look for an elevator stop switch - they often operate in a push/pull fasion.

part of the trick is to have the egg land vertically because it less likely to crack at the ends; if this is not possible, try to stick with conatined (like a box) soft items, such as cloth, rubber, styrofoam (anything plyable) on top w/ support

You don't say how far the egg will drop.\n\nI would make a cradle for the egg out of straws, about half a dozen taped together at the ends, the egg just held in the center by friction.\n\nThen I would construct a "cage" about one straw long on each of its sides (six sides for a cube) Use glue to attach straws together and only leave about an inch between straws. Leave one side open until you put the cradle with the egg inside, attached to the center of two sides of the cage. then finish the last side. Glue diagonal half-straws across each corner (three for each corner). That would be my best off the top of the head solution.  A second cage could be built around the first. You didn't mention any size restrictions. The bigger the structure is, compared to its weight, the more wind resistance it will have, and the slower it will fall.  The idea is to let the cage absorb the force of the impact but insulate the egg from it as much as you can.\n\nGood luck.

The parachute idea is good. Put the egg in a sock and then fill the tissue box with tissue or toilet paper

- Make a tetrahedron out of rolled up newspaper. Suspend the egg in the middle of the tetrahedron with a support strut from the egg to each of the four corners. Make sure the joints are properly taped so the structure is rigid.\n\nalternatively eat the egg.

Grab your hand around it and pump it up and down, and stuff will spit out of it!

salt water is heavier than fresh water. If the water is salty enough, the egg will float. Otherwise, it will sink.

I actually turned this exact lab in at the begining of this semester for my College Bio class for Osmosis.  The shell of the egg does dissolve in the vinager and the egg still has the membrane attached.  After being in the vinegar you put it in the syrup and the syrup draws the water out of the egg because the syrup is heavier and has larger molecules that will not go into the egg and the egg is all shriveled up and the volume of the syrup is increased by 50 ml after being in the H2O for 24 hours it will draw the water back into the egg and your volume will decrease by 50ml.  It feels like a water balloon it is awesome.  If you get a chance, go ahead and do the experiement, I had my 8 year old help me and then he took it to school for show and tell.

Home made, a 24 volt car battery and jumpercables, a piece of iron rob work well. If my use a cattle prod.That is what I use grabblin for catfish.

How about making some jello in the specimen cup with the egg instead of the water, and don't freeze it.

My science class did the same project a few years ago. I suggest suspending the egg within a sphere, try making wings to slow its fall. I dont think whether it is a trianlge or not will really affect its streght to much. Good luck

A parachute won't work.  Not with paper and tape.  You want something that will distribute the force of impact evenly across the egg to prevent a crack.  If you squeeze and egg in your hand evenly you can't break it, but applying uneven pressure will cause it to crack.  Padding will work, if you don't use a lot and keep it focused towards to bottom of the egg.  Make a "cradle" for the egg to rest in inside your padding.

If you leave an egg in vinegar long enough the shell will disolve leaving only the inner membrane.  It's pretty cool.  I've done it quite a few times.
