Newcastle in Utah and California

[Amt0905]

I have been following how this is being handled in California and I am horrified! It appears the only interest being served is commercial chicken facilities.

It’s about time the citizens of Southern California noticed and are taking action.

The horrifying thing about the video here

is that apparently AVIAN INFLUENZA was alleged in paperwork at the last minute to kill this lady's chickens immediately. Apparently the state needed something that could theoretically kill humans.

Otherwise, VND is like Marek's. There's a retail chicken operation in Norco that's been reportedly selling Marek's infected chicks since 2016.

Yeah that is quite the story going on there. It's like a soap opera. A lot of people said she should ask the judge why he signed the warrant. They dont think the judge knew a thing about it, which would be against the law.

At 104:18, she says, "If you were in a better zip code, maybe they wouldn't do it."

And I think of us here in the Bay Area. We're good at dismissing the Southern California situation as something that could never happen to us in the "better" zip codes, like the one Gov. Newsom is from.

The page is quite hard to navigate but she says they told her a close neighbor had birds that tested positive. But I guess with the warrant, by the time they got to her it was something like five months later and if her birds had vnd they would all have been dead.
So her point is that they are depopulating as a tactic with no reasoning to the backyard chickener. She also speculated they were forming a safety perimeter around a small local commercial farm. Bottom line is she doesn’t feel she was given a rational reason which is what she’s so mad about.
