That is an OEGB cockerel. He was a doll. Unfortunately, he developed an infection that he could not recover from, even with antibiotics. Had to euthanize him.

His name was Salty.

I'm sorry about Salty. Very pretty bird!

Actually I am his (if same person) guinea pig for this. He said his mentor, years ago, used to do this. Mentor claimed it increased successful shipping. I was telling someone else about shipped eggs issues I had, he asked if I wanted to be his guinea pig, just pay shipping. Being he has Cornish I jumped at the chance.
I'm not sure how long they will be incubated or anything else. Just it would be March/April
I'll let you know in a couple of months when he ship's and if any hatch.

That he was. Great temperament as well. He was super calm and very mellow. My current little dude is gorgeous, and is a nice little guy, but I sure wouldn't call him mellow!
