Pick-Up Orders

 

MATURE BIRDS AND HATCHLINGS can be picked up at the farm by appointment only.  Appointments should be made at least a day prior to pick-up.  We are closed Sundays, Thanksgiving and Christmas.

MATURE BIRDS:  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.  If possible, 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.  If day-olds cannot be picked up prior to needing feed and water, there will be a brooder fee.  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.
