Title: Wanted - fertile goose eggs - Brecon Buff
Post by: querceti on March 20, 2015, 03:55:00 pm
Hello, I'm looking for some fertile goose eggs to incubate, ideally Brecon Buff, a rare breed or something with colour. Located in Scottish Borders.

Thanks

I might have some West of England later in the season? Got my first lot in the incubator now and then selling the next batch if the fertility is OK and then after that might have a handful more before my own second lot? They're auto sexing - boys are beautiful white, girls pied with grey back and head.

Thanks for the reply, I have a friend with West of England, who could also let me have some of these later, I really like the Buffs, but not sure whether I can brave ebay at the price they are!

Hi, what's your location or would you post? When  would be later and what is the going rate, the prices seem to be very variable!
