Good excuse for wine drinking and a bon fire.
Why do you have to burn the contents?
Or maybe that's to justify the wine and bonfire? ;-)

ILT is the only thing I vaccinate my birds for. Sandy it is very easy to administer, one drop to the eye, it's blue. You know it has been administered properly when you see their tongue turn blue. I buy it from Dr, Lloyd Weber just outside of Guelph, very inexpensive, one bottle for like under $20.00 and does a 1000 birds.

My birds have never had it but those darn sparrows run a muck in my barn and they are carriers!!

Partly the wine drinking............but it is on the mauxfactors label. To burn unused vaccine and materials.

On behalf of Ontario’s four feather boards, the Feather Board Command Centre wishes to clarify that the heightened biosecurity advisory announced earlier this evening has been rescinded.

The previous advisory was based on incorrect information provided to FBCC. The ILT case is actually in Dufferin County. Producers there are being notified. Steps are being taken to avoid such confusion in the future.

Any updates will be provided through www.fbcc.ca

Those who don't vaccinate, can you explain why you don't? I like to hear both sides and as many angles as possible :)

Can't say I'm in a real hurry to vaccinate. I'm an anti-vax supporter in most areas.
