VACCINATION 

 At BBF farm, CHICKS/EGGS ARE NOT vaccinateD for certain diseases, and it is crucial to understand the implications of this decision. Specifically, BBF wantS to emphasize that chicks from our farm should never be mixed with vaccinated birds due to the possibility of shedding. 

Here's some essential information regarding this matter:

1. No Vaccination for Chicks: BBF HAS made a deliberate choice not to vaccinate THE chicks for specific diseases. THE FARM HAS FOUND OVER THE YEARS THAT THIS WEAKENS THEIR IMMUNE SYSTEM. DISCLAIMER: THIS IS A PERSONAL OBSERVATION ONLY.  While  IT HAS BEEN SAID THAT vaccinations can provide protection against certain illnesses, they can also result in CREATING OTHER ISSUES.  By not vaccinating THE chicks, BBF minimizeS the risk of shedding and THE potential transmISSION of the vaccine virus to other birds. THE FARMS FEELS THIS IS ALSO BEING A RESPONSIBLE PARTNER TO OUR NATURAL WORLD AROUND US TO REDUCE CONTAMINATION.  THIS IS THE FARMS PERSONAL CHOICE AND ONE NOT MADE LIGHTLY FROM THE PERSONAL VIEWPOINT OF THE FARMS SOLE PROPRIETORSHIP ONWER/OPERATOR THROUGH THEIR OWN EXPERIENCE AND OBSERVATION.  

2. Importance of Separation: It is crucial to keep chicks from our farm separated from vaccinated birds. Mixing unvaccinated chicks with vaccinated birds can lead to the spread of the vaccine virus, potentially causing illness or reduced effectiveness of the vaccine in the vaccinated birds. This separation is critical to prevent any unintended consequences and maintain the health of all birds involved.

3. Biosecurity Measures: We take biosecurity seriously at BBF to ensure the health and safety of THE birds. By adhering to strict biosecurity practices, such as preventing the mixing of vaccinated and unvaccinated birds, we can minimize the risk of disease transmission and maintain the overall well-being of our flock.

BBF kindly requestS your cooperation in maintaining the separation between chicks from our farm and vaccinated birds. This measure is essential to ensure the health and safety of all birds, as well as to comply with best practices in biosecurity.

                                        

Hatching Eggs & Shipping 

At Breezy bird farms it is understood about the excitement and anticipation that comes with hatching eggs. However, it's important to note that shipped hatching eggs are delicate and cannot be guaranteed due to various factors beyond the farms control.  bbf wants to ensure that our customers have a clear understanding of the risks involved and the terms of their purchase.

1. Fragile Nature: Hatching eggs are fragile by nature, and despite the farms best efforts to carefully package and ship them, there is always a risk of damage during transit. Factors such as temperature fluctuations, handling by the shipping carrier, and other unforeseen circumstances may affect the viability of the eggs.

2. Non-Guaranteed: Due to the inherent risks associated with shipping hatching eggs, bbf cannot provide a guarantee on their hatchability or success rate. It's important to understand that purchasing hatching eggs is done at the customer's own risk.

3. Final Sale: Once hatching eggs are purchased, they are considered a final sale. bbf is unable to accept returns, exchanges, or offer refunds on hatching eggs due to their perishable nature and the risks involved.

However, it's important to note that shipping timelines are not guaranteed to arrive on time and are not covered by the farm. We want to ensure that our customers have a clear understanding of the shipping process and the limitations involved.

1. Shipping Timelines: While we work closely with our shipping partner to ensure prompt delivery, there are various factors beyond the farms control that may affect the estimated delivery timeline. These factors include weather conditions, unforeseen transportation delays, and logistical challenges that may arise during the shipping process.

2. Non-Guaranteed: Due to the unpredictability of external factors, BBF cannot guarantee specific arrival dates for shipped orders. While every effort is to provide accurate estimates, bbf is unable to guarantee a delivery date or time frame.

3.

THIRD PARTY SHIPPING

THE FARMS chooseS to utilize third-party shipping services for their convenience AND TO KEEP THE SHIPPING COST AT A DISCOUNTED RATE WHICH IS PASSED ONTO THE CUSTOMER FOR A BETTER BUYING EXPERIENCE.  However, it's important to note that a third-party shipping service means that BBF IA unable to provide reimbursement for late shipments. BBF wantS to ensure that customers are aware of the limitations in terms of reimbursement when using external shipping services.

1. Third-Party Shipping Services: Third-party shipping services are separate entities from our company. These services are chosen and utilized independently for the transportation and delivery of their orders. While we may work with specific shipping partners, any issues or delays related to the third-party shipping service are beyond THE FARMS control.

2. Reimbursement Limitations: As THE FARM IS NOT directly responsible for the shipping service, we are unable to offer reimbursement for delays or any related costs incurred. This includes situations where the third-party shipping service fails to deliver within the expected timeframe or experiences any issues during transit. THE THIRD PARTY SHIPPING SERVICE UTILIZED WELL KNOWN CARRIER COMPANIES.

DISCONTINUATION OF SHIPPING CHICKS

Chicks are no longer shipped due to safety concerns because of the potential risks and harm that can be caused to the chicks during transit. Here's an explanation:

1. Health and Welfare: Shipping live animals, such as chicks, involves various risks to their health and welfare. The transportation process can subject the chicks to stressful conditions, including temperature fluctuations, limited ventilation, and insufficient access to food and water. These factors can negatively impact the well-being and survival of the chicks.

2. Temperature Control: Chicks require specific temperature conditions for their survival and development. During transit, it can be challenging to maintain a consistent and optimal temperature, especially when shipping over long distances. Extreme temperatures, whether too hot or too cold, can be fatal to the delicate chicks.

3. Handling and Rough Treatment: Despite efforts to handle the chicks with care, there is always a risk of rough treatment during shipping. Mishandling by shipping carriers or delays in transit can lead to injuries or even death of the chicks.

5. Alternative Methods: To address the safety concerns and prioritize the well-being of the animals, alternative methods have been adopted. These include local pickup, on-farm hatching, or working with specialized animal transport services that provide proper care and attention to ensure the welfare of the chicks during transit WHICH MUST BE ORGANIZED BY THE BUYER. ANOTHER ALTERNATIVE CHOICE IS TO SELECT HATCHING EGGS, WHICH CAN BE SHIPPED AT AN AFFORDABLE COST WITHOUT ANY TRAUMA TO LIVE ANIMALS. 

By discontinuing the practice of shipping chicks, the focus is now on finding alternative solutions that prioritize the safety and well-being of these young animals. These measures aim to ensure their healthy development and reduce the risks associated with long-distance transportation.

Picking up ChickS

 It is now necessary to pick up your chicks within three days of their hatching to avoid incurring additional animal care costs. THE FARM HAS HAD TO  implement this policy to cover the time and cost associated with caring for the chicks beyond this initial period.

Here's why this policy is in place:

1. Ensuring Efficiency: By picking up your chicks promptly, BBF can streamline our operations and allocate resources effectively. This allows THE FARMS to provide the best care for all the animals in our facility while minimizing unnecessary costs.

2. Responsible Ownership: Timely chick pickup demonstrates responsible ownership and ensures that the chicks receive optimal care right from the beginning. It also helps create a smoother transition for the chicks into their new home and reduces any potential stress they may experience.

3. Cost Coverage: The additional animal care cost of $2 per chick per day is necessary to cover the time, effort, and resources required to care for the chicks beyond the initial three days. This includes providing them with proper nutrition, maintaining a suitable environment, and monitoring their health and well-being.

BBF understandS that unexpected circumstances may arise, preventing you from picking up your chicks within the three-day timeframe. If you anticipate any challenges in meeting this deadline, THE FARMS kindly requestS that you contact THE FARM VIA EMAIL  as soon as possible. We will work with you to find a suitable solution that ensures the well-being of the chicks while minimizing any additional costs.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation in adhering to this policy.  BBF appreciateS your commitment to responsible pet ownership and ensuring the best care for the chicks.

Here are some important points to consider regarding the suspension of farm tours:

1. Biosecurity Measures: Our farm follows strict biosecurity protocols to prevent the introduction and spread of diseases. By restricting access to our farm, BBF can minimize the risk of contamination from external sources. This is especially important during periods of heightened risk or when new animals have been introduced to THE farm. PLEASE NOTE, THAT BBF NO LONGER ACCEPTS LIVE BIRDS AND INTRODUCES NEW STOCK THROUGH HATCHING EGGS ONLY. QUARANTINE ON HATCHING EGGS THAT ARE HATCHED IS ALSO SOMETHING THE FARM PRACTICES AND TAKES SERIOUS.  THE FARMS top priority is to maintain a healthy and safe environment for THE animals, and the suspension of farm tours supports this objective.

2. Animal Welfare: The well-being of our animals is of utmost importance. By limiting access to our farm, we can reduce stress and minimize potential disruptions to their daily routines. This allows us to prioritize their care and ensure that they remain in optimal health.

3. Visitor Safety: In addition to protecting our animals, BBF haS  a responsibility to prioritize the safety of THE CUSTOMERS PICKING UP ORDERS IN THE BIO SECURED AREA. By suspending farm tours, BBF can mitigate any potential risks associated with public access to our INNER BREEDING FACILITY. This includes minimizing the possibility of accidents, injuries, or the unintentional introduction of harmful substances onto our premises.

However, BBF firmly believeS that the STRICT BIO SECURITY of farm tours is essential to maintaining the biosecurity and welfare of our farm and its inhabitants.
