[QUOTE="simme, post: 1747525, member: 40418"] No doubt the broiler houses represent big numbers if disease hits. But, I suspect the bigger risk for the disease spread is backyard and free range chickens that have higher risk of contact with migratory and other wild birds. Broiler houses are sealed up pretty good in regards to keeping outside birds from entering. Chicken companies have some protocols in place to slow the spread of disease. Like spraying down tires on the trucks entering/leaving each farm, foot baths for workers, protective clothing, and means to quickly depopulate (kill) a house if disease is detected. [/QUOTE]
