You should stop in next time you are out this way, I always enjoy meeting other chicken addicts! I sell a variety of baby chicks, I think I have around 16 different breeds now, as well as guinea keets, turkey poults, pheasant babies, peafowl, waterfowl, doves, and quail. My silly guineas have...

DMRippy-did you see what the mountain quail went for? I had to leave early and missed them, I would have loved to have had them. They had some very nice Buttercups I wanted also.
They usually always have guineas at the exotic sale. They do mail out brochures about the sale, you can probably call the barn and get on the mailing list. Here is the info I have:
