Owning backyard chickens and other poultry can be a great experience. However, it’s important to consider the risk of illness from harmful germs such as Salmonella. This CDC feature shows how to reduce your chance of getting a Salmonella infection from backyard flocks.





Study: Salmonella Infections and Live Poultry

A recent study published in Emerging Infectious Diseases reviewed live poultry-associated salmonellosis outbreaks from 1990-2014. As more people keep backyard poultry flocks, Salmonella infections have increased, especially among children.  High risk practices include keeping poultry inside homes and kissing birds.
