It's important to keep your chooks locked up til we find out if the bird flu has spread. We know that chooks complain about being locked in, but you can do some simple things to keep them happy and entertained. This is picked grass in a hay net for the ladies to pick. 🐔🥚

The latest outbreak has been reported by the media as occurring in the Hawkesbury region, but our understanding is that it is specifically at a large poultry farm near Freemans Reach. We are not in the exclusion zone, as we are located over 13 kilometres from the affected area. As a precaution, we have confined all of our free-range stock to pens with adequate space and protection, where they can still dig, scratch, and dust bathe.

As backyard poultry keepers, you too can help to limit the spread and reduce the risk to your own flock. We suggest that you do not allow your flock to free-range until the bird flu threat subsides. Limiting your poultry’s exposure to wild birds is paramount and we suggest covering your pens with bird netting. Keeping water for your flock clean is also very important; we suggest chlorinating rainwater tanks if this is what your chickens are consuming.

People with backyard flocks should ensure their footwear is kept clean and wear specific footwear when visiting their chickens. For instance, we have separate on-farm and off-farm footwear to prevent walking in diseases. Always wash your hands before and after handling poultry or eggs. Additionally, quarantine new birds before integrating them into your flock.

If you see unusual signs of disease or suspect an exotic disease in your poultry, immediately call your veterinarian, an LLS District Vet or the Emergency Animal Disease (EAD) Hotline 1800 675 888.
