(this is a copy of thread in local chicken laws, as I thought it may be more relevant here)

Hello everyone,

Has anyone ever got NPIP certified in NYC? If so, how easy is it, and what are the details?

I have my CA egg handlers license. I'm on a waiting list for NPIP. I've been on the waiting list for about 6 months so far.

Are you from a densely populated area, and if you know, how likely do large cities offer NPIP? (I can't find any NYC city regulations mentioning it, but NY state has the program)

Thanks!

I'm in the San Francisco Bay Area, but I'm in a suburb. In CA, there is a subsidized small flock option. That's the waiting list I'm on. It shouldn't matter where you are as long as you are meeting the requirements. Check your city ordinances on how many birds you can have, though. In my town I'm only allowed to have 20.

The waiting list was huge even before COVID-19. It has more to do with the New Castle's outbreak that lasted for quite some time in Southern CA and a shortage of vaccine.

Nothing to do with covid.
There has been a shortage on the antigen for testing for over a year now.

The laws state " No person shall keep a live rooster, duck, goose or turkey in the City of New York," That seems really positive for me. + NY state considers coturnix to not be a game bird.
