A controversial decision by state agriculture officials is drawing the ire of backyard chicken owners and supporters.
The identification program is usually voluntary, but has been made mandatory for all backyard poultry farmers.
“In planning our response for highly pathogenic avian influenza, one problem we’ve come across is that we can’t protect birds that we don’t know exist,” said State Veterinarian Doug Meckes. “We need to know where poultry are located so we can properly protect commercial and backyard flocks.”

That has been brewing for a long time. Not just poultry registration but all livestock regardless of # raised. Supposedly to track disease, but definitely because it increases the size of gvt, gvt control over your possessions and increases costs to a small scale producer who wants to provide at least for their own family.
ReplyDeleteGvt wants everyone dependent upon corporate farming because gvt controls them.
This was already implemented in baby steps thru livestock shows and fairs. Punishing the productive future farmers.
Worthless people. Thanks.
DeleteVomitO has commented on your story "NC mandates chicken registration":
ReplyDeleteThis is classic Oppressive Tyranny. NC used this to get their NEW Oppressive Fishing Licensing moneymaking scam in place. They FAIL several times with Voters so Developers got their people into Bureaucratic Positions to regulate the Piers and Fish Houses out of business so they could GET that Property for DEVELOPMENT.
Then they put in place through Tyrannical Mandate Salt Water Recreational Fishing Licenses and other oppressive regulations to FLEECE Tourists for their BIG Plans to destroy the Coastal Culture further for profit of people in Raleigh and putting Locals out of business save for a few LOW paying seasonal jobs while Carpet Bagging Trash Destroys Everything.
Only took them 15 or so years. Wanna Park, PAY some New York MOB owned Parking Company. Wanna eat in a Local Seafood Joint, eat in some trashy Yankee shit hole with New England Vomit Chowder and Sweet Bread garbage that resembles hush puppies.
Now they have some tyrannical Lunatic says He can Make LAW, but it's "VOLUNTARY". Of course it's always MANDATORY, except they don't actually ever put that part in writing. Next thing you know the Sheriff has a warrant for you because you forgot to pay your annual "chicken tax" and have a vet visit, and YES they already do that in New Hanover County with Pets such as Cats.
evil assault chickens....ought to have registration!
ReplyDelete:) They ought to be made to register their weapons also........:)

Yup.
DeleteThe proper response to this directive is ARGO.
ReplyDeleteI haven't seen it, but looks good. Rotten Tomatoes has it at 96%
DeleteIf the same people would quit bringing everything under the sun into the United States, without quarantine, it might not have to worry about such things. I say, screw 'em. A bird shows positive, and I'll shove it down THEIR throats. Feathers and all.
ReplyDeleteHa! :)
