Yesterday one of 5 hens seem I'll. She was not eating, standing off, not moving much. I checked her for mites, checked her vent I didn't see anything. But I put her in her own cage inside run away from others. This morning before the others were let out she was running around acting normal. Eating, moving about normally. I saw she had laid a soft egg. And I was missing an egg yesterday. So I feel like she's ok just maybe had a hesitant egg laying. She has a bald spot on her head just below her comb. She's had that going on for a few weeks. I've seen the biggest girl pecking at it here and there. I assume that's why. Unless you think something different? I'll be keeping my eye on her.

We posted our farm boundaries with “No Trespassing” signs specifically to keep the Dept of Agriculture off our property. Our farm is fully fenced with locked gates. The govt can’t walk onto your property and test your chickens without a warrant unless you give them permission. Don’t give them permission, tell them to get a warrant. They can’t get a warrant without probable cause which is physical evidence and they can’t get physical evidence without going onto your property and testing your birds.

The Dictionary defines the word “TREASON”; “Treason” is when a person acts against his/ her country. ... A treasonous person is called a TRAITOR! Outside the field of law, the word "traitor" can be used to describe a person who betrays a group to which he or she belongs! So 49 years since Labor PM Whitlam and LNP Fraser first treason against the Australian people by agreeing to the UN Lima agreement: to reduce our manufacturing by 30%, with the same amount of lost Aussie workers jobs? And to buy goods to the same amount from China, Vietnam, Pakistan, and Brazil? The UN Lima agreement is still working against today! Soon our only export will be our minerals! Since that first betrayal the treason continues, UN agenda 21, Climate Change? UN agenda 2030, what’s the LABOR and LNPs next treason for The WEF+EU+WHO+UNs “WHO PLANNED-DEMIC TREATY” and their “WHO VACCINE PASSPORT” or is it during their next planned demic starting in Brazil in 2025! That is according to Dr Bill Gates such a clever monster. He predicted their Covid planned demic too, and claims to know when and where for their next planned demic?

From what I heard (from Dr. Peter McCullough’s podcast) that’s what normal bird flu does/is. Birds get mildly sick, birds get better, birds are now immune. He said if they would stop culling the birds and stop vaccinating the birds and just let the virus run its course the birds would become immune and we could put bird flu behind us. But the government needs an emergency to keep absolute power so if there is no emergency they will make one up. Even if it’s not a real emergency.

@@WelcometoChickenlandiaWould love to see you talk about Mycoplasma in chickens. I recently ran into this and had never heard of it and I’ve been keeping chickens for almost 9 years. I ended up culling nearly my whole flock before learning they can live with it. Needless to say I was heartbroken. I feel completely defeated this year as far as my chickens and mycoplasma go. I would love to hear someone else’s perspective on the topic.

[@WelcometoChickenlandia]

I talk about that in a podcast. Let me try and find it!

[@WelcometoChickenlandia]

Okay I think it’s in this one. Sorry, I’m at the grocery store so I can’t give you the time stamp but I’m pretty sure it’s in here: www.buzzsprout.com/916387/14197336

It's so refreshing to just hear sincere truth spoken... You have to be the best ambassador for home chickens. God bless ! Peter Brussels Belgium

[@kristibrz2798]

Thank you for our information, I love chickens and I’m not afraid!

[@BeckyTheBabe]

My family and I just love our chicks. We all sit out in the run with them and feel like they are our therapy! They give us so much to laugh together at, I cannot imagine letting them go now. My heart has stretched to fit my 21 chicky chick chicks in!

[@nancysala7769]

One of the things I love about you, is that you approach subjects with so much common sense. Thank you so much.

One of your best posts. You go girl. ❤. Hope you and your flock are doing amazing 😊

[@WelcometoChickenlandia]

Thank you!

[@jlrbhj]

I just love your calm, methodical, common sense approach. Chicken keeping is awesome.

[@jlr1176]

Aside from homesteading channels, I don’t really research chickens, so it was interesting your channel was added to my feed. But I do appreciate you spreading the truth on your experience with them. Really praying for our nation and the chickens!

[@oldchickenlady]

Thank you for using common sense and not spreading fear. I still find it hard to believe that this flu can jump from birds to mammals.

[@aprilcollier4462]

Thank you. The confusion out here is crazy. More people need to speak on this to calm this fear. I ❤ backyard chickens too. Had and raised them most of my life.

[@swanhill772]

Your list of disclaimers-not being a doctor or government employee…that actually makes you more likely to speak truth these days. Kind of unfortunate, but it speaks to your ability to have common sense opinions.

[@markmybirds3695]

[@cathysellers4236]

Thank you Dalia for presenting common sense and critical thinking in your encouraging manner. It is uplifting to see your birds so happy and cared for! Thank you for the great information.

[@Shamustodd1]

Thank you for the info. My city recently changed it's no birds policy to up to six hens with a bunch of stipulations. Nothing so draconic that makes it a pita mostly just common sense stuff. I haven't raised chickens in 45 years but it's been a blast. I think my girls are pretty spoiled. They frequently sit looking out the window that faces the house waiting for me to bring them a yum-yum. Thanks for all the good info.

[@laattardo]

My town just upped the amount of chickens we can own based on lots size.

[@ShortbusMooner]

I'm not worried about any of it, because what's going on right now is 🐃💩. The tests are seriously sus- for chickens AND people. I would confidently state that only people working in factory farming would have even a minimal chance of being affected. Not to mention the whole 'cow to cow' transference they're trying to scare everyone about now.. Just ALL untrustworthy.. 🤨😡 Thank you for all you do, ma'am! 🐔❤🐔

[@janeywelch9983]

Spot on and I love your French accent btw! 🤣

[@katie7748]

Agree!!!

[@lat1419]

Plus those who have got the "burd flew" haven't been really ill. One guy in the UK got it living with many many birds in his house in very poor conditions. The sort of conditions akin to animal hoarding.

[@andreamcgaughey2707]

Thank you for doing your research on this and sharing it with us ! In this new world of social media it's so quick to make decisions without finding out the truth. Blessings to you 😇🙏💙

[@besoamy1]

You nailed it about factory farm conditions, but unfortunately most people shop big value stores and that's what most of America eats, low quality fast produced animals. I bought local chickens they were better than fancy organic supermarket; the smell, taste of skin and less grease..yummy

[@betterlivingonabudget]

Every time I watch your videos: 1) I think you're so just-right adorable it makes me smile. 2) You truly have Presidential-level chicken knowledge that matters, and 3) - Better-than POTUS skills when it comes to info-sharing in an easy-to-listen/watch while learning kind of way. Thanks for all you share here, and all that you contribute to bettering universal Chickenlandia.

[@meganelle1200]

Thank you for sharing this information! I really appreciate your content! ❤

[@schammond8993]

I realize the world has to be fed. Most people, I find, are completely "dislocated or detached " as to where their food comes from. Stop going on hearsay and educate yourselves about these issues. Madam President, as usual very well said. (By the way your hair looks lovely today).

[@Anne-ee1pw]

Thank you for helping to reduce the public’s fear. I myself have chickens and keep the wild birds away from my flock the best I can. I keep water and feed clean and away from wild birds and other pests the best that is possible. Wild birds having contact with chickens is the most likely way that any disease is spread to backyard chickens. Also ducks going out and swimming in ponds with wild birds then coming in contact with chickens. It’s possible to keep chickens and have then healthy for many years.

[@elizabethangus4758]

Love my chickens. So quirky and adorable. Wish I’d started keeping years ago.

Thank you. ❤ You are not a PhD, md, or other but you have common sense and speaking the truth.

[@sylvieroy3751]

I cry when I see all those chicken Locke in this so bad condition😭

[@kimfleury]

No kidding? I never knew there were only 2 people identified with avian flu! Here's something interesting: I was born in the early 1960s, and so was my best friend. My family moved across the street from them in the late 1960s, while they had lived there from the time not long after my best friend was born . When they moved in, there was an elderly couple next door who kept chickens. My best friend's parents were transplanted Southerners from the Smokies, and they lamented that they weren't permitted to keep chickens in their own backyard. Their next door neighbors were only allowed to do so because they were grandfathered in when the city health board banned chickens in the city *due to concern about avian flu* !!! When my best friend's Mom was telling me all this, it was the first I'd ever heard of such a thing. I'd just assumed that farm animals lived in the country on my grandparents' and other people's farms, and that city people didn't care to keep farm animals. So it turned out that public health boards were using disease as an excuse to ban farm animals in our city. I don't know if they had any evidence that chickens caused the disease, but since then I've certainly heard it passed along as if it were Gospel Truth. I can't count the number of popular press News stories I've heard saying that different types of influenza often originate in China _because it's a predominantly agricultural society_ . Then they go on to cite avian and swine flu as examples. I tell you what, when I went to college, I learned not to trust the popular press for information about most if not all science news. I even had professors warning against it because the popular press dumbs things down to make the articles readable by anyone with a 10th grade reading level. Nowadays it's probably dumbed down to a 6th grade reading level. Thank you for being more intelligent than those college educated know nothing journalists.

[@tracyroake2815]

Whenever you cut to a video like that with the chickens in such deplorable conditions in my opinion, it brings me to tears.

[@3michellemybelle]

Me too 😢

[@michellelopez2783]

I thought I was the only crying when I saw that.

[@beverlymichael5830]

Me too. It should be illegal. So inhumane Makes me so sad. When I get baby chicks a friend always says: Those you choose are going to have a wonderful life.

[@WelcometoChickenlandia]

It is so difficult to look at. ❤

[@maren807]

I agree, it's awful 😡😪.

[@ThatAnimalChannel]

I just ordered your book but im sorry to say i bought it second hand. On top of just being broke, i could not bring myself to line amazons pockets as a ex employee who got fired for being out sick. Mind you my doctors notes had been emailed to them. I will pay full price for the next item!❤️

[@WelcometoChickenlandia]

Don’t apologize!! I’m so glad you were able to grab a copy. ❤️❤️❤️

[@ravenslair117]

It breaks my heart to see how some chickens have to live. My chickens have so much space and sun and food and love. It’s just hard to imagine what those poor animals live. There is no comparison to what we offer our chickens to how those other four creatures have to be.

[@AlternativeHomesteading]

When I lived in New Jersey I had a close professional relationship with the health Director because of my feral cats. I specifically asked him about the bird flu and he shook his head he says ignore it.

[@septembercindy]

Agree. Don’t let the fear porn get to you.

[@TraciesLocalLearnings]

Happy and healthy go together ❤🐓 for chicken's aswell as humans. Stress weakens our immune system and fear causes stress! Stay calm, confident and keep loving your chicken's 👍Blessings

Finally a voice of reason!

[@soymilkmuse]

Thank you, Dahlia! I really appreciate the way you present information and the love you have for chickens. I'm so in love with my little flock of 7, and I've learned so much about caring for them from you. I have had chickens on and off since I was a child, but I feel better educated and prepared than ever before because of your channel. Keep doing you, because you are amazing! 💕

[@mariewheeler5626]

It's amazing that people are fearful of any and all contagion! I do have chickens and turkeys. I know there can be transmission of pathogens between humans and birds. There should be more fear in mirocrobe transmission between humans than between humans and birds.

[@RoslinLassie]

For the first year in many this is the first year that us keepers in Scotland have not been forced to keep our birds in lockdown (unlike in England) I take biosecurity measures like only wearing the same boots into their run and dipping my feet in disinfectant before I go in, very seriously. I also keep my birds in a fully covered run with guttering on the roof to divert any water ingress that may bring wild bird faeces into my run. The transmission to humans is extremely rare and the effects on us as far less traumatic than they are for our birds. A couple of people in millions to contract H5N1 is a minute amount and how they contracted it says a lot about the environment they were in. I am a scientist working in animal health and welfare so get notified of any disease outbreaks immediately, however I don’t overly worry about my backyard flock. I do worry about 40,000 birds in one very small confined space passing illness very easily between each other. Keeping your birds in healthy, clean and dry environments with good biosecurity can go a huge way to protecting your birds. We are though, now required to register our birds with DEFRA (dept of environment, food and rural affairs) so we can be notified of an outbreak in our area and take remedial action. Personally I think factory farming has a lot to do with the fast spread of endemic diseases and that raising our own is a far less risky affair

[@marilynshealy2010]

At this point I don't trust Science, anymore than I do the government or Doctors. We have been lied to so much. Those Who go along to get along with this craziness have damaged their own reputations by not standing up when they knew that the others were spreading lies. They did not defend the truth. Sorry but at this point ...there is no trust left.

[@susanmeadors2733]

I just had 1 sick bird this past week and unfortunately I did not hear your REST method so I did not remove her. However I started giving her bird probiotics and the electrolytes right away. I put them in the water for all of them. I went out and checked on her several times a day and pet her and prayed she would get well and she is better now. None of the other birds got sick and they never bothered her. 🎉 AND I did not get sick either. Thank you for all the info you share about back yard chickens.

[@janetspiritofthelivinggod6328]

I had the same thing last week too with our new blended flock. One of the smallest ones had some respiratory thing going on with some lethargy, stuffy nose and water running out of her break after drinking. I added the apple cider vinegar to the coop water and she recovered and no one else has shown similar symptoms, thankfully.

[@joelindagordon8046]

Thumbs up,!!!!!! yes knowledge is power Peace love light unity ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@SimplyBackwoods]

Thank you so much for sharing on this. I don't live in fear and just doing my best and loving my chickens 😀 Feed lots and chicken factory farms aren't natural habitats for animals and many of us don't raise our animals this way. Unfortunately because of the few cases of bird flu it can be used for more harm than good. My chickens and all the birds here are so happy and peaceful therefore I'm peaceful about it all too. Thanks again so much

[@coolwatyr]

Hello Madam President Just hearing the factory “farming” is heartbreaking…. Watching it is worse. We love listening to the many sounds our chickens make as the wander around the yard… when one of the Roosters finds a tasty morsel and tells the flock “Look what I found!” Or when the egg song starts and they all celebrate. Our 12 happy chickens, in our fenced yard (predator protection is important) with a beautiful new coop (we’ve saved for it!) are a far cry from the chicken houses with no freedom, no sunlight, no tasty morsel found while scratching around the yard… Educating ourselves is important. Sharing what we know - and where we found the information - is also important. We love our flock. I will defend them, and our right to keep them. Blessings ❤ 🐓 👽 🛸 🥚 ~Linda

[@mammacass5311]

That’s so crazy. I just looked up your other videos about bird flu the other day because my chickens were sneezing and I wanted to see what was going on. It’s crazy you came out with a new one thank you.

[@mommachupacabra]

Considering the massive flocks of starlings that hover around dairy farms where I used to live, I'm betting it came from starling droppings when they hit the feed bunks. And yes, massive. Thousands wheeling from farm to farm.

[@darlene5621]

Nothing ANYBODY says, does ,orders , mandates, or blah,blah,blah will make my girls go any where. If they get sick I'll work to get em back up to good health. These are my babies their where their gona be.

Thank you Dahlia❤ I love your common sense approach to chicken raising ❤ I totally 100%. Unfortunately our government relies on fear and that isn't happening with a lot of us keep on doing what you're doing we love it❤ thank you for all your hard work informing us❤ Patty

[@sorbabaric1]

The problem is with the huge chicken farms and their monocultures of unhealthy birds in confined quarters. Not the small farms with small flocks and backyard chicken keepers.

[@JohnDoe-jp4ff]

The real issue is the Klaus, the Bill and their friends. Love these images of your birds, very impressive.

[@m.b.ortega544]

I couldn't agree more! ❤

[@farmhouseontherock]

We lived on a farm during 2022. The woman who owned the farm had over 300 birds, if not more. I think her chickens would’ve been OK, but she also had ducks and geese and even a couple wild geese that had made her farm their home. And that was OK except she had this big giant pond in the back and the wild geese would come all spring and then they come again in the fall and they would hang out there for weeks and they had the flu and passed it on to her geese and ducks, who then took it in and gave it not only to her chickens and turkeys and all the other birds, but also to her Emus. We had chickens at the time in our own little area on the farm that were completely covered by tarps, and the government came in and basically took all her birds, and killed them and was coming for mine, and I didn’t let them have mine. We moved off the farm and moved into a different place, and none of my chickens ever got sick And they are all very healthy and doing well. I think honestly all the geese that were flying over and pooping all over the farm were not able to affect ours because they were covered. But it did make me angry how the government came in and forced their way in and was going to just kill every bird on the farm whether they had her permission or not.
