Hey Billy, I read an article about the Chinese bird flu showing up at poultry farms in Delaware. Are you being effected by the bird flu? What kind of mortality rate does it have on the chickens? Hope you are far enough away that it is not effecting you.

Yeah Chief, I'm far away from Delaware. The strain of Avian Influenza that was just found in DE is not the one (H5N1) that affects humans. The outbreak in DE is called H7 but any farm testing positive, all birds will be destroyed.
This stuff crops up, in the US, every so often. ....
