Maybe post photos of the cockerel. Also since Melbourne is in quarantine you also need it include that you can only travel up to 10kms (25km from Friday), and anything further than that would need to be discussed with the Covid line (I thinks that’s what it is called). When we had to pick up and incubator that was 6kms away (1km out of our distance limit) we talked to the COVID line and they gave us permission since it was for the well-being of an animal, it also meant we didn’t get fined. Try gumtree if you haven’t yet. Hope this helps
