Post by: carpe diem on September 11, 2007, 05:14:48 PM
Hi wings of all types

First time here on forum

Lots of fun and findings so far
Living North of Vermont, there's a place called Canada

Is it a problem to import chicks or eggs tru borders
I've not seen any procedure for such and would like
to shop some birds or eggs

Thanks for the answers

Hey there "Pluck the Day" ! ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carpe_Diem )

Why are you wanting to bring birds up from the States ? Nearly everything you could want is in Canada.

PS: didn't know there is/was an Abbotsford out east, thought it was by Vancouver...

Thanks for your help anyway

Yep, there is an Abbotsford East
The real name is St-Paul Abbotsford, Qc
a little village an hour from Montreal, a stone throw
from Vermont.

We should not encounter much problem with eqpt, much larger offer
on your side. We have one store dedicated to small scale operations like ours, plus co-ops here and there.

My concern is mostly regarding birds strains or selection we could
get on our side compared to yours.  Plus the offer for birds in Quebec province at this time of the year is close to zilch.

salutations
