SeasonalDay-old baby Sebastopol geese, hatched here and shipped with warmth in mind. You will need a brooder ready before they land.
In seasonFertile eggs collected fresh and packed for transit. No hatch rate can be guaranteed on eggs that have travelled.
Massachusetts is about as far from Simsboro, Louisiana as we ship. Overnight service with the longest routing of anywhere on the list. We are more cautious about booking these than any other, and more willing to hold a week for better weather, because there is less margin in the journey if anything goes wrong.
Winter closes the window from December into March. Spring through autumn is the working season. We would rather hold a shipment by a fortnight than send a bird into conditions that are not safe for it, and heat is the greater danger of the two. Most buyers in Massachusetts are around Boston, which is worth telling us when you enquire so we can talk about a realistic window.
The general policy, including what to do if something goes wrong on arrival, is on the shipping and live arrival page.
Coastal damp combined with cold is the awkward combination for curled feathers. Dry shelter matters more than raw warmth. The care guide covers housing, water and diet in full, and it applies wherever you are: dry shelter, shade, and water deep enough for a bird to submerge its whole head in.
States set their own requirements for incoming poultry and those requirements change. Buyers in Massachusetts are responsible for confirming what the state currently asks for before ordering. We will not guess at another state's regulations, and you should be wary of any seller who does.
The same flock ships everywhere. See every bird we have photographed on the geese page, or pick by age: juveniles, goslings, or hatching eggs. Colours we are running are in the colours guide. If nothing is available in the colour you want, ask to go on the list for the next hatch rather than settling.
Buyers near the Massachusetts line sometimes find a neighbouring state easier to receive into: Connecticut, New Hampshire, Vermont. All 48 are listed on the by state directory.
