thanks in advance!!
 
Did you ask the employees, AND check for yourself?
The reason I ask this is because the first time I got bbs eggs, the employees didn't know, and fortunately I looked around and found some. You never know.

I'm sure a simple google search will yield desirable results, and you can order some online. Brine shrimp eggs aren't very expensive.
You might also be able to find "sea monkey" kits in places that sell toys for kids. These contain brine shrimp eggs. However, they usually contain arbitrary sophisticated "cool houses" for the brine shrimp, at a high price; probably not your best bet there. Perhaps if worst comes to worst.
 
i have some if you want i opened it used like a small pintch and failed at hatching them
and put it aside

Yes, I got a bunch of bbs, although about 24 percent of the eggs did not.
Be aware I simply used a plastic box with salt water used to keep brine shrimp; a specifically designed brine shrimp hatchery would have yielded a better hatching rate.
