Chat Thread for the New Crazy 24 hour Auction

[Peachychicken1]

Would anyone be interested in Blue and Green egg layers plus a chance of pure Buckeye? I was thinking about listing some. Never listed before. We are NPIP in GA.

I would be thanks

Not sure if this has been asked before, but is shipping allowed without NPIP certification? I’ve seen a few listings on the auction thread and they don’t seem to specify if they are NPIP or not...

Depends on the state of both buyer and seller, actually.
One of the most active sellers in the auction is not NPIP and in fact, most people selling on BYC aren't. It really isn't a big deal if you're not shipping live birds.

Ah! Thank you for clarifying.

Would anybody here be interested in over a dozen bantam assortment eggs? There will 100% be extras.

Technically it's not allowed for the large majority of states. It's also pretty much never enforced.

Some states even require permits separate from NPIP stuff to import eggs, but no one is really checking.

If you're curious, here are the requirements by state:

I was not NPIP but had all the same tests done but I didn’t separate my flocks

My birds are ALL from Wisconsin Tested or NPIP flocks, so I'm just as good as well. P/t and AI free here.

Just out of curiosity, is anyone still interested in hatching eggs by this point in the season? I know it's late.

To whom it may apply, eggs are only allowed to be shipped if they are not likely to be harmed by anticipated temperature changes while in Postal Service custody. Use your best judgment when shipping or bidding on eggs.

Sellers beware: If you ship live birds please review the pricing. USPS has recently jacked the prices of shipping oversize boxes so incredibly high. I do not know if other things/laws have changed regarding shipping eggs or live animals. This is by weight, so keep in mind weight when shipping eggs that are not shipped in a flat rate box.

Best,
