1. SEPARATION
Restrict access to poultry property and the
flock.
Owners should consider fencing off the area
where they keep their birds and make a barrier
area if possible.
Allow only people who take care of their birds to
come into contact with them.
If visitors have birds of their own, they should not
go near the flock.
Game birds and migratory waterfowl should not
have contact with the flock because they can
carry disease-causing organisms.
![Page 20: INTEGRATING POULTRY INTO YOUR PRODUCE OPERATION](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052406/628a952adcdf2720c26c2365/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
2. KEEP IT CLEAN
Caretaker should wear clean clothes, scrub their shoes with disinfectant, and wash their hands thoroughly before entering the bird area.
Clean cages and change food and water daily.
Clean and disinfect equipment that comes in contact with the birds or their droppings, including cages and tools. Remove manure before disinfecting.
Properly dispose of dead birds.
![Page 21: INTEGRATING POULTRY INTO YOUR PRODUCE OPERATION](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052406/628a952adcdf2720c26c2365/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
3. DON’T HAUL DISEASE HOME
If flock owners have been near other birds or bird owners, such as at a feed store, clean and disinfect car and truck tires, poultry cages, and equipment before going home.
If they take their birds to a fair or exhibition:
Keep them separated from the rest of the flock for at least 2 weeks after the event.
New birds should be kept separate from original flock for at least 30 days.
![Page 22: INTEGRATING POULTRY INTO YOUR PRODUCE OPERATION](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052406/628a952adcdf2720c26c2365/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
4. DON’T BORROW DISEASE
Do not share lawn and
garden equipment, tools, or
poultry supplies with their
neighbors or other bird
owners.
If they do bring these items
home, clean and disinfect
them before they reach their
property.
![Page 23: INTEGRATING POULTRY INTO YOUR PRODUCE OPERATION](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052406/628a952adcdf2720c26c2365/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
5. KNOW THE WARNING SIGNS OF DISEASE
Sudden increase in bird deaths in the flock
Sneezing, gasping for air, coughing, and nasal discharge
Watery and green diarrhea
Lack of energy and poor appetite
Drop in egg production or soft- or thin-shelled misshapen
eggs
Swelling around the eyes, neck, and head
Purple discoloration of the wattles, combs, and legs (AI)
Tremors, drooping wings, circling, twisting of the head
and neck, or lack of movement (END)
Early detection is important to prevent the spread of
disease.

6. REPORT SICK BIRDS

they should contact your
local veterinarian
