A compulsory housing order for poultry was introduced here last week, but like yourself I take no notice of that nonsense. Strange how this bird flu doesn't cause sickness in wild birds but kills poultry. Hmm.
Adorable little chucks there. I don't hatch my own, I just wouldn't be able to do away with the males. I'm far too soft.
Yes, isn't that odd? I do have separate quarters in case a quarantine is necessary, but not using it if I don't have to. I don't like the dispatching either. Sometimes I can barter live birds for other goods, but I usually end up having to deal with it.
