Raising poultry of all kinds is a rewarding and a worthwhile activity that can provide many benefits, from personal pleasure to profit. Because of the popularity of raising poultry, you probably have a lot of neighbors with birds; therefore it is important for everyone to be involved in preventing diseases.
If your neighbors protect their flocks, they help to protect yours, too - and the other way around. If everyone takes the biosecurity precautions that are suggested here, we can make a big difference towards keeping healthy and productive birds, and reduce their risk of dying from disease. The goal is for everyone to enjoy healthy birds.
