you will need a 4 bird box, put some pineshavings in the bottom and make sure you have dividers in the box, read the thread about shipping, most of the time they do get there the next day. I got a pair from TX to VA, he shipped out late that afternoon and the post was calling me at 6am the next morning to come get the birds so all will be well Iam sure. put the phone # on the box of the person getting the birds so the post can call them when they arrive.

None of mine had the dividers but its probably a good idea. The towel is a good idea and thats how mine came. I have called about 6 post offices to get an idea of what time the truck comes and everyone one said there truck comes between 2:30 and 3:00 in the afternoon. But please check with your local one and find out. I would hate for you to get to the post office at 9:00 am and the birds just sit in the postoffice until 3:00I would rather them be at home comfortable until they need to go, less stress for them.
Yes, put the address on the box and you will still have to fill out the priorty label also and have both phone numbers on the priorty label. I'm stressed and they aren't even my birds. You can also ship by delta airlines, just to let you know. Its around 95.00 dollars and they get there in hours instead of days. I don't know if your close to an airport but wanted to let you know that. min

Go here, http://www.foyspigeonsupplies.com/catalog/69-82.html and order the #71 Economy Mailing Box for $15.95. You should get it in a couple of days. Meanwhile go talk to the landlord and let him know what you are doing. Then the first Monday after you get the box, which should be Nov 16 if you order this weekend, mail the birds. Total should be close to 50 to 60 dollars.
