@tlariv @ai6yr I have three ducks in my yard, and all I can say is, people who don’t know about poultry shouldn’t have poultry during a bird flu outbreak. Birds are filthy, dusty, and impossible to isolate from wild birds and other critters that carry fowl fever. Backyard flocks are not the answer to bird flu related egg shortages. Smaller farms may be, but not placing vectors in everyone’s yard.

@mcnado @tlariv @ai6yr Speaking from experience, $8 a dozen isn't so bad after you account for all the food, shelter and daily work required to keep the hens clean and happy.
