What’s required to be able to ship hatching eggs and live chicks,ducks and geese? Like a license or testing or what. Sorry if this is the wrong area to post.
Ok I have had call ducks in the past and it was a total disaster. We had 6 that was 2 weeks old. Took them out to swim one day for about 30 mins and within the hour they were all dead. No clue what happened. They just started not being able to walk and shaking. We kept them warm and still...
Why must the be so hard to find. The only hatchiers i have found them at will not ship to Kentucky..... I read somewhere that someone ordered some from ideal poultry but I haven't seen any on their website. Anyone know where I can get some that's not gonna rob the bank lol
My quail didn’t hatch yesterday on day 18. I did have to play with the temps for the first couple of days to get it steady. Could this be why. My daughter just called me at work and said some of the eggs are rocking so maybe???

At what age can I put ducklings in the tub to swim a little? I’m nervous as the last time we had ducks my husband had them outside for a bit of sun and gave them a little tub to swim in and we lost all of them within an hour. I was crushed and haven’t owned ducks since and that’s been a few...
I have owned chickens ducks turkeys geese and parrots but never any guineas. I was told they will protect my flock and also keep ticks down. How true is this? They are crazy little birds thats forsure lol. They are still in the brooder but super funny to watch Any advice on these 3 little...
