Bird Flu In Washington- Info and discussion thread

View attachment 3133056
We have a case really close to us which is not super fun. Good news is we don’t have any water or wild fowl.

Our chickens all free range so not super excited about this
I really hope your able to keep everybody safe. Crossing my fingers for your flock!
 
Just joined so I can watch this thread. We have 5 chicks ranging from 1 week to 5 weeks in a small closed coop. We are in the process of building a new large coop.

We live in Cowlitz county. No cases yet, but we live right on the Columbia River. We always have wild ducks, geese and other birds on our beach. It's like a bird sanctuary, which I love, but now I'm very concerned for my chicks. I have a camera set up and do see wild birds that get close to the coop.

Welcome! As long as your chicks don't have direct contact with the wild birds they should be pretty safe.

Looks like a few more cases for us in 10km control zone (3 in Snohomish). I am not sure how frequently they update the results but it does not seem to be spreading super quickly, which is good.
