I am just seeing this. I will get some pictures this week and post them. I have pictures from last year but I've replaced a few hens in the Marans pen and added some pullets to the Ameraucana pen.
I am looking for some good quality Rhode Island or Rock breeds. These will be hatched for my daughters 4-H project so I am not wanting hatchery stock. I am looking for some older lines that someone has been working with for a few years.
Are you talking about the 2020 breeding season? Yes, as soon as they start laying well enough to ship a dozen fresh eggs these will be available. I will not ship eggs over 3 days old, but really try to keep them under 48 hours old.
I am not NPIP. HOWEVER, I am an NPIP certified tester ( got my certification 2 years ago) and tested over 30 of my birds (all negative). In Indiana you are required to test 30 birds if you own up to 300 and then its 10% of the number of birds you own. Then with the antigen shortage, they...
I have both of these breeds. I am not getting enough eggs at this to ship a dozen of either but should be within a month or so. My Marans pen has a black roo and a blue roo over 8 black hens. They originated from Bev Davis lines. My B/B/S Ameraucana originated from Max Strawn lines. I have...

Would you mind if I shared this information on a Facebook page I have? I'm trying to keep everyone updated. Feel free to join! It's for any NPIP certified testers.

From Twin City Poultry: ATTENTION ANTIGEN CUSTOMERS: We have been told by the manufacturer that they are hoping to be approved by the USDA sometime the end of April?.
I am in SW Indiana and also would like to get on the list. I've been watching for any more information on a release/production date but haven't seen much of anything so I appreciate the updates! I also just started a FB page NPIP Blood Testers for testers to join to stay up on events or find...
I just got certified yesterday, also in Indiana (SW). I still have to figure out what to charge and have to purchase the antigen. It's almost $200.00 per bottle and is only good a year.
Strawberries are over for us here in southern Indiana. We actually tilled under a 6' x 20' row of them last night to replant a different variety. I did get 8 pint and a half jars of French style green beans done. First time ever for green beans. And my frencher only will cut 4 beans at a time
We have renamed him Lazarus because he has risen from the brink of death. Never thought he would have made it a month ago. Another few days and he will go back into general population. We are just waiting on the last of the scabbing to heal.
