Welcome!

Personally, I keep a closed flock but bird flu is not something that I have had to deal with.

Biosecurity, Quarantine & Infectious Disease Management was a recent Topic of the Week and you might find this thread interesting reading: https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/...-quarantine-and-infectious-disease-management

I hope you enjoy being a BYC member. There are lots of friendly and very helpful folks here so not only is it overflowing with useful information it is also a great place to make friends and have some fun.

You might want to also pop in and say hello on your local thread: https://www.backyardchickens.com/f/26/where-am-i-where-are-you ‘Find your State’s thread.

If you would like to share pictures and stories of your flock, you have come to the right place. BYC’ers never tire of these and do not back away slowly or commence eye rolling when the photo album or home videos come out
