Nobody is mentioning this when talking about raising fowl. I’ve had chickens and the primary reason I’m not doing that now is because I don’t want primary contact with h5n1. I don’t even know if testing is available and if it is imagine it isn’t cheap. Even if I made a fully enclosed pen so wild birds can’t get to the food or water I’d still worry. And I want my animals to free roam.
Bird flu is still an issue
