I dug up my stuff from Messer. You do have to have a vet inspection of the animals upon arrival and yearly afterward. Sorry. I misremembered. I think my neighbor (who is a vet) will look at birds. I'm sure there are others. I would call around. A bird is a bird is a bird.
When I emailed Dr. Messer, he said nothing about having the chickens vet inspected. Dr. Messer is supposed to inspect your coop plans and waste disposal plans before you get your birds. The whole process is delineated on the Columbus Public Health's website. I think that is why there is so much...
Code here hasn't gotten back to me, and it has been over a month since I spoke to him. I dunno if they are too busy to deal with me or just don't want to. I'm working on plans to make the coop and run more low profile, just in case.
Danaus - I am sorry you have had such problems.
