Chickens & COVID-19?

[Aquatic_blue]

So...I'm curious...I remember the H1N1/Avian flu break out years ago...is it possible for chickens to get COVID-19?

I've had a chicken or two kind of acting out of sorts - sleeping on the opposite end of the coop, not going too far away from the coop during the day - things like this. I have COVID-19 and a bit worried I could've given it to my chickens. What should I do?

Hmm...how embarrassing...I don't even remember making this thread nor can I seem to remember my chickens acting that way. I must be losing it

Sounds like the effects of COVID-19 to me. I hope you recover well.

As far as I'm aware, only mammals can get it and I think at that it's just mice/rats, cats (large and maybe small) and maybe dogs besides humans.

Hmm...all righty...hoping that chickens can't get it, but I'm trying to keep a close eye on them.

No. Poultry is safe for Covid-19.

Probably...and the status epilepticus I experienced. It's been over a month and I'm still not 100% right in the head...

Thanks, I hope I feel normal one day again, too...
