Below you’ll find a list of farms and breeders in Nova Scotia who are real, established sellers – helping make sourcing waterfowl and gamebirds locally a little safer. If you’re looking for chicken breeders, you can find a list here: [Nova Scotia Chicken Breeder Directory]
Unfortunately, there are a lot of scammers out there who steal photos from legitimate breeders and try to sell birds that don’t actually exist to unsuspecting buyers. A good rule of thumb is to never send money to someone you don’t know, and if someone claims they’ll ship live birds to you, it’s time to keep scrolling. That’s simply not something that’s done within Nova Scotia.
While I can confirm that the farms listed here do exist, and I’ve happily purchased birds from a few of them, I haven’t personally dealt with every farm on the list. Being included here doesn’t necessarily mean I’ve worked with or personally recommend them all – especially as the list grows and includes more breeders over time. To keep things fair, farms and breeders are listed alphabetically by county and then by name, with no priority given.
As with any purchase, I encourage you to do your own research when choosing a breeder to make sure they’re the right fit for you. Follow best practices when vetting any breeder or farm, even those listed here, and always quarantine new birds before introducing them to your existing flock.

There are SO MANY more farms and breeders than this short list but I don’t want to include anyone without their permission so you’re only seeing the information from folks who have volunteered it.
If you’d like to be included in this list, please send me an email with your Facebook page, your rough location (county and nearest town name), what breeds of birds you offer and whether you offer hatching eggs. If you also breed chickens, you can include them as well and I’ll add you to the chicken breeder list at the same time. I will include anyone I can verify is legitimate (if I don’t already know you) in an alphabetical order list grouped by county.
Nova Scotia farms and breeders (or ones who travel here regularly and are willing to deliver) only please!
