New to Shipping birds

[Chickens143]

Hey guyys,
so i have a pair of lemon cuckoo orpingtons i want to sell on here after i get 20 posts.
but i have looked online and contacted a couple people about it, but they never responded.
Do i need a special test done on my chickens to ship them? and how much does it cost?
do i need a permant or somthing? and also who should i ship out of ex: usps, ups, fedex?
Oh and also where could i buy shipping boxes and what should i put in them to keep the chickens fed and not going to die?
thanks
