So in this blog post we wanted to share a few tips on what you can do as a chicken owner to keep your hens safe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Firstly, what is Avian Flu?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Avian flu is a disease which occurs naturally among wild aquatic birds. It\u2019s caused by infection with avian influenza Type A viruses, some of which can cause severe disease and high mortality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unfortunately, Avian flu can infect domestic birds too. Symptoms can include a swollen head, discharge from the eyes and nose, respiratory distress, diarrhoea, loss of appetite and fewer or no eggs. Sadly there&#8217;s no treatment for Avian Flu, so once it is identified as active, the entire flock must be culled. It\u2019s therefore important for chicken owners to know how to reduce the risk of Avian Flu infecting their flock.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What are the rules for Chicken Owners?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bird flu is a notifiable disease in poultry and other captive birds. This means that if you do not report it, you\u2019re breaking the law. If there are any&nbsp;symptoms in your flock which may be connected, you should inform Defra. If you have more than 50 poultry and game birds you must also register them. If you have fewer than 50 birds you can still register them and Defra will contact you if there\u2019s a bird flu outbreak in your area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What can I do to Help Keep my Chickens Safe?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Keep Wild Birds Out<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Infected birds can shed avian influenza A viruses in their saliva, nasal secretions, and feces. It\u2019s therefore important to keep wild birds from having contact with your chickens. This is especially the case during the winter when there\u2019s generally a seasonal increase in the UK because of winter migration patterns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.smithssectionalbuildings.co.uk\/Category\/Poultry-Houses\/Chicken-Houses\/The-Thicket\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"750\" height=\"500\" data-id=\"85\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.smithssectionalbuildings.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/The-Thicket-2-750x500.jpg\" alt=\"The Thicket Chicken Coop and run.

The wire is bird proof and the run is covered to stop any wild bird droppings<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have your own water birds &#8211; ducks and geese, for example &#8211; make sure their pond doesn&#8217;t attract wild birds. Be aware of migration times and be on the lookout for wild birds taking up residence.<strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Fence Birds in if necessary<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>If your birds are usually free range and allowed to roam free in your backyard it\u2019s a good idea to fence them in during an outbreak. Consider switching to a covered chicken run and keeping their food and water in the enclosed area so wild birds cannot access it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"667\" height=\"500\" data-id=\"86\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.smithssectionalbuildings.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/12-x-6-bespoke-run-1-667x500.jpg\" alt=\"12\u2019 x 6\u2019 bespoke covered chicken run\" class=\"wp-image-86 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.smithssectionalbuildings.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/12-x-6-bespoke-run-1-667x500.jpg 667w, https:\/\/www.smithssectionalbuildings.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/12-x-6-bespoke-run-1-365x274.jpg 365w, https:\/\/www.smithssectionalbuildings.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/12-x-6-bespoke-run-1-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.smithssectionalbuildings.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/12-x-6-bespoke-run-1-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.smithssectionalbuildings.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/12-x-6-bespoke-run-1-scaled.jpg 2048w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 667px) 100vw, 667px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 667px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 667\/500;\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">12\u2019 x 6\u2019 bespoke covered chicken run<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Maintain Chicken Houses and Sheds<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>There are several measures you can take with your chicken house to help keep your hens safe. It\u2019s important to repair any holes or gaps to stop wild birds getting in and to fix leaks to stop contaminated water getting in. It\u2019s also a good idea to remove moss from the roof since it can attract wild birds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Practice good hygiene<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Clean and disinfect regularly. This includes not only your chicken hutch, coop or shed, but also tools and equipment such as such as wheelbarrows, crates and buckets. Keeping a bottle of hand gel in your coop will make it easy to clean your hands regularly. Foot dips can also be a good idea, especially if you have other areas on your property where wild birds land and mix.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Put new birds into isolation<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>If you buy new chickens or ducks, check their health before you bring them to your property. It\u2019s also wise to keep new birds separate from the rest of the flock for 10 days to check they don\u2019t develop symptoms of bird flu. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We hope these tips help to keep your birds happy and healthy.
