[Chicken poppy]

Hi! Im sorry if this isnt the right thread and is a bit weird to post.

For a project im looking to gather info on a disease, i choose avian influenza. Info is limited on some sources so im wondering if some people could help me out and briefly describe it to make sure im on the right track of info? Thanks!

Where have you looked for information? What class is it for (English, Science, 4H, ... and college level, high school...)?

You might start with CDC or Aphis, depending on whether you are covering the disease in people or in birds. Also, google scholar - when you find research that fits your topic, check their references and search for those names. Also, check who cited that research to find related information. And (surprising number of people don't this, ) read the whole thing to see whether their conclusion actually is supported by their results.

Hi! It is for 4H. Ive looked for information on a chicken health care book recommended to me by vets and educators, it was very useful, it just didnt explain that much about avian! And thanks so much! I’ll do that.
