It is now more important than ever for all those who care for domesticated poultry to be able to spot avian influenza symptoms.
Spotting these symptoms early can reduce the impact that an outbreak can have on your business.
Equally important is having stringent biosecurity protocols in place to reduce the risk of an outbreak occurring.
The clinical signs of avian flu can vary across species and appear in a combination of symptoms, these include:
If any of these symptoms are spotted within your poultry you must promptly get expert advice from your vet. Avian influenza, if confirmed, is classified as a notifiable disease and you legally have to inform the Animal and Plant Health Agency (APHA) and the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra).
