This is the second time I've heard this today FC

I know a lot of game farms shut down this past year due to high feed costs.

If you're looking for bird from "anywhere" there's always the mega farm "macfarlane". It will cost a bit but they do ship birds.

Sorry I can't be more of a help.

Macfarlane is out? Wow. It's only the first week in January too. This doesn't sound good for hunt clubs.

I just emailed a guy I used to buy birds for taxidermy purposes in Island Lake IL. He's always got hens this time of year, though by the way it sounds he may be out too.

I PM you if he's good to go.

1,200 would be nice. But 500 would be great too.
