Buying guide

How to choose specialty livestock

Start with the purpose. Eggs, meat, fiber, pest control, showing and pets each point to different species and breeds. Housing matters just as much: secure, predator-proof shelters, enough room and clean water keep small livestock healthy.

Rules for keeping and moving poultry and rabbits vary by state and by country. Tell us where your animals are going and we will confirm what is possible before you commit.

Before you buy

  • Decide the purpose: eggs, meat, fiber, show or pets
  • Prepare predator-proof housing before the animals arrive
  • Check local rules for keeping poultry and rabbits
  • Plan for company: most species do better in groups
  • Tell us your destination so we can confirm shipping
