LimitedPast the gosling stage, off heat and fully feathered, with the curl already coming in. Hardier to ship than day-olds.
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.
Minnesota is a cross country run from Simsboro, Louisiana. Still an overnight service, but with more hub transfers than a southern shipment, and every transfer is another point at which a bird can sit somewhere it should not. We watch the forecast at both ends before booking.
One of the tighter windows in the country. Winter routing is restrictive from November through March, leaving a concentrated warm 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 Minnesota are around Minneapolis and Saint Paul, 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.
Adult Sebastopols handle serious cold well given dry shelter and unfrozen water. Goslings are a different matter and need the calendar on their side. 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 Minnesota 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 Minnesota line sometimes find a neighbouring state easier to receive into: Wisconsin, Iowa, North Dakota. All 48 are listed on the by state directory.
