Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI) is a highly contagious and fatal foreign animal disease in domestic poultry. Wild birds serve as a reservoir for influenza viruses and can spread these viruses to poultry. No cases have been detected in Colorado, but flock owners should prepare by following increased biosecurity measures.
Check your plans and make sure everyone knows what safety practices are being used and implemented.
Monitor production parameters (like feed and water consumption), signs of HPAI, or other changes in bird behavior.
Report suspicious disease events in your commercial or back yard flocks to the State Veterinarian's office.
Enroll as a Secure Food Supply (SFS) participant through the State Veterinarian's office.
