Registration

To control diseases such as avian influenza, most states require backyard flock owners to register their flocks. Inquire about registration with your state's Department of Agriculture. Registration includes all types of poultry of any number such as chickens, turkeys, ratites, waterfowl, game birds, and domestic/captive pigeons. 18
