I have three different stags/cocks from different breeders. I also have several pullets / hens of each breeder. Some of these eggs come from breeding within the original lines some are crosses. These are lg gentle with people birds but are game, so no adult males can be kept together. They are slow to mature but if they are game sooner or later the males won’t tolerate other males. These are proven breeding as I have chicks and sub adults out of each.

those are the three stags/cocks used in the breeding
 
My eggs are in the incubator- I cannot say how they were packed because I was in the hospital when they arrived- but they must have been packed wonderfully, because all eggs, including the extras arrived completely unharmed! My kids unpacked them and had them sitting in an egg carton big end up waiting for me when i was discharged. Hopefully they will all develop and hatch- but if they don't I sure wont blame anyone but bad luck due to me being admitted and making the eggs wait an extra two days. Should have heard me in the Emergency Room, "I CANT be admitted- I have eggs coming in the mail"....bwahahahahahahaha...
 
How would an O-shamo be with other chickens/hens especially bantams? I want one O-shamo just because I think they're awesome.

Hello, well I am glad you are back home and hopefully on your way to feeling better. Now you do know that Emergency rooms don’t treat or cure chicken fever!!

If given enough space hens should do fine. My shamo and other game hens will free range and share a coop with my OEB as long are they are rearing chicks, this way they take a break from breeding and laying. The cocks once mature (very slowly some at 2 yrs) should not tolerate other cocks or roosters if left to their own. Some times hens will get into it but should desist if separated. Games are a little different but easy to win your favors.
