The cockerel had enough energy to fly himself right out of the package as soon as we got home. I only opened it a little bit and whoosh he was out. We only peeked in at the PO to make sure they were all alive...opened it fully once we were home. Then he realized he was the only one out and stomped back to the box and pitched fits until we got both his girls out. Yes...his girls plural. The breeder sent me not one but two absolutely flawless pullets along with an insanely gorgeous cockerel. I know there is no "perfect chicken" but dang...these surely must come close. They ate a *lot* and drank a *lot* and then fell asleep.
Pictures tomorrow of everyone - I'm letting them rest and settle tonight. Thank you everyone for your warm thoughts and prayers, I have no doubt at all that it made a big difference in the outcome.

I pray cj and papa's birds come to them healthy and alert as well! Please post as soon as you hear anything about your featherbabies you two.

SO glad to hear that they made it safe and sound. I sent a pair off earlier this fall and they were in the mail for 5 days! they arrived at their PO on their 2 day BUT the local PO kept them as it said protect from heat and they couldn't get the buyer to answer her phone! they called everyday. When she emailed friday night to ask if I shipped this week I freaked. I was on the phone sat morning to my PO master. He called them and chewed them out about why they didn't deliver them to the address after the first day! They said well it says protect from heat. He said well won't do you much good if they DIE from starvation/dehydration! He gave me my shipping money back. BUT they were alive and when she took them out of the box, the roo jumped out. lol Most likely like yours and saying get me the bleep out of this box! Good thing I put big containers with food icecubes in hot months and fruit. Had I not done that I am afraid they wouldn't have made it. Shipped on a monday and delivered on a sat! whew poor birds.

So what would happen if I crossed an americauna with one of the breeds (like welsummer) that produces a splatter-paint egg. I am thinking the eggs would be gorgeous blue with the splatter painted brown on them. Would that work? anyone know? would it have to be one direction or the otherr to work? (ie would the roo have to be either a welsummer or an americauna, or would either option work?)
