What do I do if I think my chickens have Avian Influenza or Bird Flu?
Do not move birds between properties or handle sick or dead birds unnecessarily. Phone your veterinarian and Australia’s Emergency Animal Disease Hotline on 1800 675 888 for advice. Follow instructions from the relevant state or territory authority. Unusual flock illness cannot be diagnosed or ruled out by this website.
Follow official instructions
Keep a note of the location, signs and number of affected birds. Do not transport a potentially infected bird to a clinic without first discussing the suspicion with the veterinarian.
