Y'all back yard chickeners be careful about allowing anyone who has other chickens come in contact with your birds or even your farm, house, barn.
Avian Influenza has been confirmed in the state. Shut down all individual sales of live chickens, period.
If that stuff gets out of hand, it will shut down and bankrupt half of this state.
Oh gosh, I knew it was confirmed in TN but did not know AL...thanks!
The Alabama Cooperative Extension System has created a website to assist backyard flock owners with maintaining healthy birds and to provide answers for avian influenza control. It can be found at
