Did you go?

Yea, it was pretty interesting. I expected more of a discussion of AI in Alabama, but it was a presentation about biosecurity for backyard flocks. I knew most of it already, but there were some useful and helpful ideas. Also highlighted some Cooperative Extension publications I hadn't read yet, or might want to re-read.
