MATURE BIRDS AND HATCHLINGS
can be picked up at the farm by appointment only. We are closed
Sundays, Thanksgiving and Christmas.
MATURE BIRDS: Appointments
for picking up adult birds should be made at least a day prior to
pick-up. The
main adult bird sale season is June through February or until we are
sold out. Mature stock is sometimes available other times of
the year. Contact us with your needs. Unless
arrangements are made otherwise, bring
a container of suitable size for transporting your adult bird
purchases. Pet carriers are well ventilated
and are excellent for carrying your birds home. Cardboard
boxes with plenty of ventilation holes also work. To provide
good footing, bed containers with a layer of straw, hay
or sawdust. During hot weather, mature birds should be transported in the
cooler parts of the day.
DUCKLINGS AND GOSLINGS:
Most duckling and gosling orders are scheduled
for Wednesday pick-up, but the day can vary with any given hatch.
Please note: if you plan to pickup your
ducklings/goslings, you need to be able to pick them up within 24
hours of being notified that your hatchlings are ready for you.
There is a $5 pickup fee for hatchlings. We
provide containers for the transportation of day-olds. Most duckling
and gosling orders are booked well in advance of their hatch date,
but we can occasionally fill last-minute requests.
