"Louisiana "La-yers" Peeps"

[topdog24]

New to the thread, and there's 4701 pages . Not sure if anything has been posted about this yet, but does anyone here know how to become NPIP certified in LA?

I would like to possibly hatch chicks and sell them, and sell the eggs I collect but don't attempt to hatch.

Any advice on selling eggs? I have a few buyers but it's hard to sell to a few people when there are 9 laying machines in my backyard and demand doesn't keep up with supply.

I am in Central LA. the region that handles us is from northwest LA, go to google and type in NPIP certification, LA and it will give you the region and the contact #s You dont have to be NPIP to sell eggs locally, only out of state, same with chicks

Hello everyone from Louisiana.
I am from what I think you would call North Central Louisiana.
Small town called Jonesboro-Hodge is where I get my mail. Actually live in Bienville Parish.
I have 24 white leghorns, 3 black sex link, 1 RIR, 2 BOs, 2 columbian colored (not sure of the breed) all hens and 1 RIR and 1 Production Red rooster.
Currently have 15 BR eggs and 12 of my own mix in the bator.
I find this site extremely interesting and informative. Good to see locals ie. louisana people here.

I live just down the road from you in Jena, i have too many birds to list

ISO Ducks!
Hello!
I'm moving from the city to a small plot of land after I get married in April. I'm so excited to get some ducks for the back yard. I've been doing some research and have decided on getting 2 Female Cayugas & 2 Female Welsh Harlequins for eggs, bug control, and as pets.

Because we only want a few, the big hatcheries aren't our best option. Does anyone know of local breeders in South Louisiana? (Lafayette, Duson, Scott, Youngsville, Broussard etc) We're willing to travel!

PS We won't need them until late April/Early May of this year.
Thanks!

Pretty easy, they will come and draw blood from a handfull of birds, well depending how many you have and tell u right then and there if they all pass or not.

Hello everyone! New member here, I’m a Louisiana native from DeQuincy. I currently reside near Beaumont Texas. I figured I lived so close to Louisiana that I should pop in and say hi here too.
