Oh duh! Where's that facepalm emoji?

Thanks! Her birds are very pretty!

@Auroradream26 would you consider doing a game sometime?

I would love to but I can't ship any eggs (legally anyway). I'm not NPIP yet :/

Do you need to be NPIP to ship out of PA?

That's my understanding anyway.

My pea eggs came from a non-NPIP farm in PA.

I'm not saying it hasn't been done, or can't be done.....

Thats what I was wondering too, if everyone on here has npip or not, I just look at signatures hoping if they are it mentions it. Most ebay sellers are not npip and shipping to states they should not.

I just feel bad being CPT here and I didnt do my flock this year for npip because of getting rid of most of the flock, but now it seems everyone wants the ones I have left! its a no win. but we have to wait till spring now anyways, too much coming up.

Part of the deal is that the post office has no clue that there is a law saying that someone has to be NPIP to ship eggs/birds, so no one is checking. It's not an enforced rule at all. And in some cases the NPIP doesn't really mean much - for example in NY they test for diseases like pullorum-typhoid (incidentally a backyard flock has never tested positive for it in NY anyway) but not common, nasty diseases like mycoplasma, and it all varies by state. In NY they never even used to test waterfowl at all.

I need to figure out what I'm going to do next year. I'm moving to VT but my flock will be staying just across the border in NY - but I'll be hatching them in VT and then moving them. So I need to figure out what to do in this case. I can't really get certified in VT because I'll never have adult birds there for testing. It's a weird situation. Hopefully they'll consider it one flock even though I'll be having them in two states.

very weird, although it sounds exciting, and you worded it good. I feel its a joke because the PT testing, how long ago has a flock even had that in US?

ps.... I wish you the best though! My guess is a certificate of testing should be good for both but you will need npip state certs in each. which is basically same form just a bit more cash and npip is cheap.
