You don’t need a big farm or a fancy website to have a place here.
A lot of Nova Scotia’s poultry breeders are small homesteads and backyard operations, and Facebook is often the only online space they have to tell people what they raise. It’s great for sharing updates and photos. It’s not so great when a potential customer is trying to find your breeds, policies, location, contact information, and everything else you’ve posted at some point over the last three years.
Your Breeder Registry profile gives you a dedicated place to put all of that information together. Tell people about your homestead, show them what you raise, share your policies and services, link to your social pages or website if you have one, and give potential customers an easy way to get in touch.
It’s free, because the whole point is to make it easier for good breeders and local poultry keepers to find each other.
Find the Right Breeder for You
Finding someone who raises the breed you want is only part of the equation.
Breeder profiles give you more information about the people behind the birds, including what they raise, where they’re located, their breeding practices, policies and services, and how to learn more or get in touch.
You can also read reviews from people who have purchased from them and look for the Identity Confirmed badge, which means I’ve confirmed that the person behind the profile is who they say they are.
The Breeder Registry doesn’t inspect, certify, recommend, or endorse the breeders listed here. Instead, it gives you a better starting point to do your own research, ask questions, and decide which breeder is the right fit for you.
Not quite sure what you should be looking for? I’ve put together some practical guides to help with that too.

Better Beginnings Start Before You Bring Them Home
Buying poultry can be exciting. It can also be a little overwhelming when you’re new and don’t yet know what you don’t know.
The Breeder Registry was created to make that first part easier.
Here you can find local breeders, learn more about how they raise their birds, read experiences from previous customers, and get the information you need to ask better questions and make informed choices.
You’ll also find practical Poultry Buyer Guides covering everything from choosing a breeder and buying hatching eggs to understanding straight run chicks and safely bringing new birds home.
Because finding the birds you want is important. Knowing what you’re getting into is even better.
