Ah, it looks like it's a federal law. I just found the permit application. I wonder if there are other birds that this is required for. I'm not getting any Candian geese myself, alot hang out at the golf course across the way. :)
Oh, I just found where I saw Canadian geese: http://www.metzerfarms.com/GooseWelcome.cfm?CustID=2183567
This is the link to their gosling site.I've heard about this hatchery and they specialize in geese and ducks.
I think that you can buy Canadian geese. But the one place I saw them awhile ago had them priced fairly high. The Sebastopol are expensive too. I think they are primarily pets and some people sell the fertile eggs and goslings. I think that I'm going to do that with my American Buff this year...
Great plans! I sure do hope you go with some waterfowl this year as well. We hatched out 6 khakis this past May and are enjoying them very much. In the Fall we were given 6 more ducks (mixed) and 3 Buff geese. They love to be outside even on these cold winter days. An owl decided to go after...
I am far from being an expert on this subject. However, I was, at one time, also very confused about this. I wanted to have turkeys but a salesman at the local TSC put the gear of God into me about raising them with chickens. But lo and behold, a baby turkey came into my possession and I had to...
Other than the few sellers here who have indicated that they tested positive, is there a list that the state keeps that we could check with? I bought at the swaps last year and privately from some of the sellers this year and am wondering if they tested positive. I have had one chicken who has a...
Speaking of coops, does anyone know of any business with any in stock? Or does anyone make any and can have it done within the week? [Looking for something pretty quickly.]
Finishing mine up this week-end. I hadn't realized that my Finals would be due in the same time-frame. Ooops!
Anyway, is Marty's address prominently displayed somewhere? I don;t think that I've come across it and I hope that I don't have to go through many messages to find it. I will probably...
I signed up awhile back and have just recently gotten on here. Did I see mention that we are using a specific block now? If so, I can' t locate the information for it so if someone would please point me in the right direction, I would appreciate it. My chicken fabric has arrived and I must get...
That is so sad. What many people may not know is that once they make it to the airport to ship, if there's a careless ramp worker who leaves them out in the cold for too long (either upon departure or arrival), there's a pretty good chance there will be losses. Now I hope there aren't too many...
I would be interested. To me, the major problem isn't the paperwork, it's finding a good breeder that has different types of birds that are not common here in the states, but not a huge amount of birds that you have to pay for many testing fees. Anyone know of any breeders like that in the UK or...
Does anyone know of anyone who would like some young bantam roos? I got a hatchery order and ended up with quite alot of roos. I'm not sure of the specific breeds, it was an assortment and they're only about 4 weeks old. Hoping there's someone who would want some.
