One bird on your PROPERTY will get all of your birds destroyed, no matter how many 'separate' flocks the farm maintains.

Can I ask where you got this sign? Its a good idea to post one near poultry areas.
Very cool. Thank You I will try to see what I can come up with.I made them at vista print. http://www.vistaprint.com
I then mounted them to a painted piece of plywood and some 2x2 stakes. I have one at the end of the drive, the end of my service road, and then one down closer to the barn. All by No Trespassing signs too.
If you enter "chicken" into the vistaprint search box, you can see many different styles and you can add whatever words you want, ignore the company and address and phone numbers prompts.
Also, most come in other colors. Have fun and good luck.
7200 birds = 17 backyard flocks is over 400 birds per flock - maybe that is not considered large enough to be commercial. But heck, my backyard flock is 12 right now. At 400 birds, my neighbors would haul me awayThat doesn't sound right. Look at the stats on the USDA site. There aren't that many. Just a handful of backyard flocks and although a few were pretty large, they don't total that many birds.
I will have to find the link that said backyard poultry has not been affected by this.....
