People can once again move chickens in parts of Barron County.
The state’s Department of Agriculture yesterday ended the movement restrictions on three areas in the county that had seen cases of the bird flu. Barron County has the most confirmed bird flu cases in Wisconsin with seven cases. In all, 14 counties in Wisconsin have seen cases of the bird flu in either commercial flocks or backyard flocks. The state says there continues to be a statewide restriction on the movement of birds.
