You can find all sorts of guinea fowl and other birds. It's worth a visit 
just to see the varieties of chickens.   They mail day old chicks - 
the post office will call you to come pick them up!  The only problem is 
that you must order 30 of them at a time.  I got my order this summer and 
raised them to about 8 weeks and then gave half to a friend on a farm with
many 
more.  A word of caution, they are loud, they are feisty, and they 
fly""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""

Oh my! Well, 30 is a bit many for me. I usually buy about 5 or 6 chicks. I
raise them in my laundry room until they're big enough the hawks will leave
them alone. I can barely stand the smell from 5 let alone 30!  lol.

I clip their wings when I first put them out but soon they are all flying over
their fence to be with the goats. I think they think they're goats.

I will check with my feed store, you never know.

Thanks
