Weight of box with birds can’t exceed 10 lbs. This box can be cut down to avoid the post office dimension weight surcharges if you are shipping bantams or other small birds. Measure up a scant 10 inches from the bottom. Cut off the area above the 10 inch mark on the long side of the box that does not have the air ventilation holes. Then lightly cut the ends and the remaining long side to form the top.

Securely tape the top being carefully not to cover up ventilation holes.
