The one thing I live by is the less govt. the better. I would never admit to any thing and I do not want anything they call a lic. You are at there mercy. I do not trust our govt. at all any more. Sure it looks good to say I got this and I got that. But, when you open you yard to the govt. you are asking for trouble. They do not want us to have our own food. If they told me I had an infectious disease i would still want a second opinion from my vet. I noticed a poultry breeder in MS. I knew them from the dog/cat show world. They have on there web sight not for sale, for our enjoyment. I am sure they still sell but, only by private treaty. All npip/whatever they can keep it. Its admitting you have animals. As for salmonella from eggs, tomatoes ect... keep in mind they are finding this stuff from mexico/china and these people use human waste as a fertilizer. At first they blame american farmers only to hold up things long enough to where the american stuff is now rotting then they come out and say oh its from mexican tomatoes... Wake up and stop blamming americans its all the import garbage that they are allowing to come in to this country along with all the illegals they are allowing. I have no doughts in my eggs and I have eaten yard eggs all of my life. My mom as a child drank milk straight from the cow. All this disease crap is just that crap. Its what they are allowing in the country... I pay for my poultry food with cash. Our govt. is made up of a bunch of liars!!!
