UNSPSC 10102106: Guinea fowl hatching eggs

Fertilized guinea fowl eggs for grow-out

UNSPSC 10102106 Guinea fowl hatching eggs is a Commodity code that describes live poultry products procured by state and local governments. The recent solicitation activity under this code does not show demand for guinea fowl hatching eggs specifically; instead, the available opportunity involves live adult game birds — ring-necked pheasants — procured to support state wildlife management and public hunting seasons. State and local issuing bodies pursuing this code tier include wildlife and fisheries departments within state government and county purchasing offices acting as centralized procurement vehicles for subordinate agencies.

The Maine Department of Inland Fisheries & Wildlife, procuring through the State of Maine Department of Administrative and Financial Services, issued RFQ 09A26070800000000000005 on July 8, 2026, for approximately 2,000 adult ring-necked pheasants with a response deadline of July 22, 2026. The resulting award will establish a Master Agreement enabling all state agencies to purchase birds as needed, with an initial term from August 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027, renewable through June 30, 2031. Birds must meet strict health and specification requirements — fully feathered with minimum tail feathers of 8 inches, at least 50% male ratio, and minimum weights of 2.5 lbs for males and 2.0 lbs for females — with veterinary certification of freedom from pullorum, typhoid, West Nile Virus, tuberculosis, and other infectious diseases for six months prior to delivery. Delivery windows and locations are specified in detail, with initial stockings required before September 26 and subsequent shipments scheduled for the first and third Sundays of October. The solicitation represents activity in Maine; no other recent opportunities under this code appear in the source.
