Agree with this.

When they tested our birds, we had nine and they only needed to test three, but it could be different depending on what state you live in. I would call your counties 4-H extension office, they will probably know of someone.

The guy who tests my birds, who is probably the best and only person available in North/Central New Jersey, only requires a couple to be tested. That way they can say they originate from a pullorum free flock. None of the birds I take to shows were actually tested themselves, they just have the cert from other birds in the flock being tested, so I can say they originate from a pullorum free flock.

Okay, that's pretty close to what we can say too.
 
That doesn't sound too bad. Is there a fee to get a spot in the sale tent? I am considering whether I want to sell birds. My current thoughts are started birds under 4 months or day olds. I also have some real pretty silkies from here. Those definitely would have to be straight run! Silkies take forever to sex!

Sale cages are $4 each in the sale barn.
