Hey Bev,

Well, I was reminded of this site, which a vet tech friend and I went to years ago, because she was in the market for a very particular parrot. I don't know how recent some of the info are, but it seems legit:

http://www.avianbiotech.com/Breeders/Search_Breeders.asp

To let you know, I think certain states (I know in VA, this is the case) classify geese as WILD animals and you actually have to have a permit to own or breed them.

Of the breeders out there, I know Stomberg's has adults, but I don't know about the cygnets.

Good luck

and you'll be looking at paying about $200-$500 each for them..they can be quite pricey...but oh so pretty..and in my opinion..well worth the price...to enjoy them and the beauty and sense of serenity they add to an area.
If I had a pond/farm for sure I'd have some of them also.

Maybe you could try watching on www.eggbid.com. That's the only place I could think of.

I checked McMurrays....none available now. I could not find any anywhere....except adult pairs and they were quite expensive. Would rather raise from cygnets to get them used to us.
