Whether or not your state requires this or other diseases to be reported is probably based on # of commercial growers in your state.
My guess that the USDA would want a report from your state might be to track any diseases and their progression or decline.
Does that make sense?

Again DEEP breath,
I'm one of the people that has taken my chicks to an AVIAN vet.

Alright, I'm in IL and it says "infectious encephalomyelitis -- avian" is reportable. Is that the same as AE? Or is that something different than what we are dealing with? I had to wade through umpteen different links on the IL Dept of Ag site to find that info.

Anyone know how IL handles things after you report something like this? I guess I'm just imagining them coming in and destroying my whole flock, young and old, even though the infected chicks have not been near the old ones. Tell me that's not what they do. Would they want to take the sick ones for testing? I've only got 2 that are still really sick the rest have seemingly recovered.

I can't seem to sort through this all, has any one else actually gotten a positive test result? This post went from 2 pages to 13 in 24 hours and there seems to be only two posts with actual test results.

Can we hash out the details under a different topic? As one with sick chicks I really want to know if other then the first few who posted if anyone has gotten back their test results.

Thanks

Anybody wanna try to answer my question?

edited to add- Just try to stay on topic, guys. Complaining and yelling at each other is not going to get us any closer to helping our little birds.

I would give every chick the chance of living a good life. But i understand and have seen my broody hens do much worse than what has been posted here to get rid of sick or unhealthy chicks.

I expect my order from MM to be good and refundable under any circumstance.

Everybody should expect the same , if you provide proof of your order, and your sick chicks ,every hatchery should help you out.
