Bird Flu has now been confirmed in the UK. I'm sick and tired of reading and hearing about Asian bird flu (HN51) and even more concerned about the slow release of a vaccine for my birds.

| 27-9-2007 | Well Bird Flu isn't exactly in the media right now, but blue tongue and foot and mouth disease certainly is. Count yourself lucky that you PROBABLY weren't even affected after all | Who would be a cow? |
| 20-6-2006 | Smacks of government conspiracy. There's definately something they are not telling us about bird flu. Probably as a result of secret biological weapons testing or something | Scary Chick |
| 06-6-2006 | Yes, we don't seem to be hearing anything about it anymore. Has it all just gone away??! | Free Range egg buyer |
| 06-6-2006 | Excuse the pun, the whole bird flu thing has died a death hasn't it, so why do we need a vaccine for pet chickens? | Kim |
| 21-4-2006 | There are now any vexcine for BIRDFLU .Uses of disinfectent spray is provide saftey more then 65% against vireul infection | raza pakistan |
| 17-4-2006 | I don't think very many people realize just how many small flock owners are out there. Ranging from a couple birds to a small flock of 50 that a 4H kid raises and sells the eggs from. I'd be willing to give shots to all of them! | Barbara |

I keep four and they provide all the eggs I need and it would be fair to say that they have become &q...more | Clive |
| 02-3-2006 | I hate to point out Clive, but I think the vaccine is probably best kept for the big guys who have hundreds and thousands of birds. You're the little guy with a hand full of chickens or whatever for personal consuption. Bird flu strikes, you loose a few eggs. If the big poultry farmers get wh...more | Scott |
| 01-3-2006 | I have actually been in contact with the vaccine manufacturers and there's gallons of the stuff | Clive |
| 28-2-2006 | If there is no bird flu vaccine and DEFRA aren't prepared to release it to small poultry farmers, there's probably a good reason don't you think? Maybe there is a shortage, or they know it will be required for the larger poultry operations.
I do think that the threat of bird flu should NOT be und...more | Connor |
