I know from talking to folks that there's multiple inspectors down here. I haven't done it yet because I'm not done acquiring birds so it's much less hassle to get all my birds done and situated and then get the NPIP before next spring so I can ship.It's just very interesting. I know you are from a different part of WA. Is your testing vet Dr. Bab***? If you don't mind me asking? I was under the impression there should NOT be intra-state regional differences (even if states vary)... I'm not going to give up, that's sure. I'd rather just keep 6 "full time" HRIR... and some extra hens for daily eggs, and maybe a trio or 2 of something 'fun' that it won't matter if I get ***ed up Or not. At least until I can get access to more space, and have actually been breeding something 'right' for a while. I had an hour long chat with a delightful vet tech at the Puyallup lab, and she's going to bend some ears for me... Heh.
