GAMES FOR EGGS and other fun prizes

you can at least get the basic PT NPIP testing Jess, I cant tell you how easy it really is, I would have to look up and see which vet is in your area.  And you can also get your CPT license in PA if you take the course, its not hard.   Like I said PT is rare, now waterfowl can show a false positive but they retest and make sure they DONT have it, and those are normally swabs, no biggy

Would that then allow me to ship eggs out of state? I have no interest in shipping chicks, ever. If you could point me in the right direction, I'll get busy on it. I just don't know where to start lol

so the eight weeks is VT rules?  see PA is anything under four doesnt get tested until the next testing, but pt is annual and I had to do AI and the others every three months and let me tell you that comes quick and what a pain in the tush, at least for drawing it all by yourself with a large flock of stuff.   I so wish you the best, if I can help in anyway just let me know.

You know, I was assuming NY rules. I didn't think to check the age requirements for VT. Still, it'll probably be at least four weeks and I never plan to keep the chicks there that long because technically on that property they aren't allowed.

And I misspoke about NY rules. It's not eight weeks, it's four months, apparently, rereading this stuff.

They don't even test for AI in NY, just pullorum-typhoid. At least it's free.

I would love to get my NPIP but I'm so on the fence about it. I don't like the idea of the government having a hand in my flock but choosing not to do it really limits customers. I've had people drive 3 hours for chicks but that's really rare. Locally, everyone just goes to the local rural king that sells chicks constantly for $0.50- $1 because they're always overstocked.

Quote: did you ask how long until someone can test for you? or can you get licensed like PA and work on your own to draw and swab? the downfall is you can get called apon by the state should and emergency happen. And I get phone calls all the time from people asking me to go do their flock, I am licensed but I am at risk because I would need to have insurance, if I spread disease its on me not state of PA.
