National Poultry Improvement Plan

They do flock testing for various diseases and certify your flock XX whatever disease free. Typhoid and Pullorum mandatory, but they do other testing also.

i see you got an answer as i was copying this from another post for you. But here it is anyways.

http://www.aphis.usda.gov/animal_health/animal_dis_spec/poultry/

In the National Poultry Improvement Plan, a farm is certified as free of Pullorum Typhoid, Salmonella Pullorum by a simple blood test done on each and every bird and swabs from your incubator(s). Many states also offer or integrate Avian Influenza testing as part of their program.
