If I'm not exhibiting my birds...can I add birds from someone who isn't pep or npip? I figure annually testing seems reasonable...

Biosecurity requirements: All additions to the flock must come directly from NPIP pullorum clean or approved equivalent program sources. Birds on the PA pullorum equivalent program may not be commingled with birds which are not from an NPIP pullorum clean or approved equivalent program flock unless those additions are tested and found to be negative for pullorum, and those additions are not commingled with the program birds until after negative test results have been obtained.

The way I read that is that once on the program new birds can not be mixed with the existing birds until they are tested and found negative. So they would have to be in quarantine until than.

Just joined this group also....and I see they are having an event in mount joy this weekend and looking for people to set up stands,,,,unfortunately I allready have plans to go camping.
 
That is my understanding, too.
The nice part of this whole session besides the info would be the tech training and when you add neww birds you can draw your own samples and send them to the lab without having to wait for a tech to come and take the samples.
 
I'm absolutely interested in attending this, and my husband would likely come as well.

Any more ideas on the when yet?

If I'm interested in the tech cert (can someone tell me a little more about exactly what's involved?) Is there another session, or is it all included?

Are we bringing birds to this clinic as well for testing?
 
Ok so posting some new pics.. of my Fluffy kids..
