I'm not sure if this belongs in this thread but I figured people who were providing information about chicken breeders may know about breeders of turkeys, guineas, ducks and geese.
I get my chickens from mypetchicken.com and I really appreciate how they make it easy to order low quantities of chickens, perfect for a backyard flock.
In the spring I would like to order around ten turkeys, eight guineas, and a dozen ducks. I am trying to find a breeder that sells these birds or, ideally, a hatchery I could order from online if at all possible.
If there are no good online hatcheries do you know of any nice places near Augusta County Virginia in which to pick up small quantities of these birds?
I am pretty clueless about where to look for any types of farmbirds other than chickens.
 
Porter's Turkeys seems really good. They have a lot of colors, which would make them seem like a hatchery, but they seem to be very focused and dedicated.

If we get Turkeys next year, I'm getting from them.

Do you know what kind of ducks you're looking for? I have several different breeds of ducks. I don't have any hatchlings right now but I do hatch to order.

I have Pekins, Indian Runners, Muscovy's, Mallards, Rouens, and a mixed flock of Call ducks although they are going to be separated hopefully by the end of December.

I also have a flock of guineas mostly pearl but I do have some Royal Purple and some Lavenders as well. Guineas aren't laying right now, they'll start again around March.

There are alot of people here on BYC that have what you're looking for.
