Yes, provided they are slaughtered and processed in an inspected (Kansas or USDA) facility and sold with the marks of inspection and required labeling applied. There is an exemption of 1,000 poultry units per calendar year (poultry units are computed by using 4 units for each goose or turkey and one unit for each chicken or other bird). The rabbit exemption is 250 rabbits per calendar year. If producers are operating under the exemption, they can sell only from their home to the end consumer and cannot sell to a retail store.
The provisions of the Act shall not apply to poultry and/or rabbit producers if (1) such producers slaughter not more than the exemption allowed per calendar year; and (2) such poultry and/or rabbit producers do not engage in buying or selling poultry or rabbit products other than those produced from poultry or rabbits raised on their own farms; and (3) none of such poultry or rabbits is sold to other than directly to the household consumer.
