State Department of Ag. Lays Out Chicken Warning

There is a warning about backyard chickens and the bird flu.

The state’s Department of Agriculture last week said people who are adding chickens to their flocks this spring need to stay away from chickens in Jefferson County. A bird flu outbreak there has led to a quarantine, and the destruction of over two-point-seven million birds. The state is also warning people to keep their local flocks safe by stepping-up their sanitary regiment for their birds.
