Taking chickens on an airplane?

[Swbertrand1]

I'd bring some Hot Hands warmers with you and keep them in the carrier which should help the chicks not get chilled while in transport.

A towel to drape over any carrier they're in to stop drafts could help too. The towel cover also blocks their view of unfamiliar surroundings and can help calm them...

Are they rumpless? Or booted bantams?

Nope and Nope. There is a rumpless version of them though.

I am stumped then. But that's rather easy to do with foreign breeds

They're very hard to find, and you were close!

The breed is...


...Watermaalse Baardkriel




Or in English....

...Watermaals!

Ah, okay. I was thinking the Barbu d'Anvers

We will be using those in the project as well to get more genetic diversity!

Good luck finding them if you don't already have a source. Been looking for a few months now

Fortunately the breeder I'm getting the watermaals from kept some D'Anvers for genetic diversity and I will be getting one from her as well. Where are you located? I know of a few breeders but most I know of are in the South. Feel free to PM me.

That's pretty far! lol!
I believe you are in District 14. Here is the Belgian D'Anvers Club of America. Your district director may have some leads on where to find some.
