Poultry Talk Ontario (pto.ca)

Now I know it happens all the time but was wondering the legalities on the issue...are we actually allowed to sell chicks from home? It sounds like a stupid question as I type it out (of course we can?) but with all the other rules and regulations on every other aspect of our lives, I was left with this question.

Yes, I am continuing to sell chicks. Some request to pay by etransfer first and have the chicks ready to go in a warm pick up spot. Just a distant hi and bye if you see them. After all depending if things go south, it is an essential service.

I appreciate the response, but I guess I didn’t works my question very well. I’m not wondering about present times or anything to do with covid. I was wondering if you are supposed to have some sort of license or registration to sell birds in general.

I'm still selling chicks and hatching eggs. All e-tranfer warm chicks in a bix in my truck. I open the door they take the box and not touch anything else. It seems to be working. The last time I sold chicks there were 3 other people selling or picking up stuff. Just be safe ou there.

Just saw your newer post...not that I'm aware of....been selling for years now.

No restrictions as far as I know.

No restrictions on hobby poultry. You are free to buy, sell trade at your will. There are strict restrictions on a commercial level.

Good to know! I’m asking because I live on a very busy highway and was contemplating adding “day old chicks” to my sign at the end of my driveway, but don’t want to draw attention if I am not supposed to be selling. Thanks everyone

Wouldn't your sign be out of date tomorrow if you added "day old chicks" to it, though?
