That is good news, but very unfortunate for the affected flock and the owner, though. It will still be awhile before the owner will be back in business.
I have a newbie question: in the conference call minutes it states that "the de-populated flock is being composted in-barn.' and "The compost pile quickly reached the critical temperature for biological heat treatment.". I'm curious how that's done; i.e., what is used to bring the compost temperature up to critical levels?

As I understand it ... they utilize heaters ( usually propane similar to commercial brooder hoods ) .. this raises the temperature along with mother nature helping as of late.. they are ahead of the game...
