Tips for Buying and Keeping Healthy Spring Chickens

By Heather Kolich UGA Extension
This time of year, there's more than spring in the air. At local farm supply stores, there's also the urgent peeping of chicks. Who hasn't been charmed -- and tempted -- by those adorable downy babies?
Riding the wave of interest in locally grown food, small chicken flocks are popping up in rural and urban backyards around the nation. A few laying hens will provide fresh eggs, litter that can be composted into a rich amendment for your garden, and entertainment. If you're contemplating starting a new flock at your home -- or increasing an existing one -- here are some trouble-saving tips.
Start with healthy chicks
Whether you're ordering chicks by mail or purchasing them at a local store, find out if the hatchery that produced them participates in the National Poultry Improvement Plan (NPIP). This voluntary disease control and prevention plan grew from a Georgia poultry disease eradication effort that started in the 1920s. NPIP-participating hatcheries

test their breeding chickens and certify that they are free from several different avian diseases that pass from hen to chick.
Some hatcheries also test and monitor for other diseases, and may offer low-cost vaccinations against Marek's disease and certain respiratory viruses prior to shipping chicks.
Poultry diseases can kill chicks and adult birds, decrease egg production and may also cause illness in humans. To avoid grief, make

sure the chicks you bring home are diseasefree and vaccinated. Visit www.poultryimprovement.org to find NPIP-participating hatcheries in each state.
Use commercially produced feed formulations
Chickens need a different balance of nutrients depending on their age and productivity.

It's very difficult to achieve the right balance of protein, energy, vitamins and minerals with kitchen scraps, grains and scratch. Nutrient deficiencies are a major cause of disease and poor production in backyard flocks. To meet your birds' nutritional needs, sort them by age and productivity, and feed them a high-quality commercial feed formulation specific to their age, life stage and whether you are raising them for eggs or meat.
Isolate new birds
Before adding new birds to your existing flock, isolate them for at least two weeks while you observe them for signs of disease. Many diseases will show up within this time period. Birds that have recovered from illness may appear healthy, but they can be disease carriers and spread illness among your main flock. Birds that are returning from a show or event where other birds were present should also be isolated before rejoining the main flock.
Diseases can be spread by contact between birds and by contaminated equipment. During the isolation period, always start and finish chores in the "home" flock,

Farm-to-School Source Show Held at Atlanta Farmers Market
The phrase "Farm-to-School" is becoming increasingly popular in the U.S. when it comes to offering healthy, fresh produce options to students. To keep Georgia a step above the rest, the state Departments of Education and Agriculture are teaming up to assist the state's schools with implementing a Farm-to-School initiative. The Farm-to-School Source Show held at the Atlanta Farmers Market in Forest Park March 19 allowed 21 Georgia Grown vendors to show area schools all the healthy, fresh meal options available to their students.

GEORGIA GROWN PROFILE: Agri Supply Co.
The store with "something for everyone" puts stock in Georgia agriculture

By Mary Catherine Cromley
If you're looking for something to be used in or around your farm, shop or home, chances are it can be found at Agri Supply, the place that has "something for everyone."
Agri Supply is a family owned chain of retail farm stores that began in Garner, N.C., in 1962. In addition to eight retail locations, Agri Supply also has a thriving website with a huge product selection that is supported by a mail-order center in North Carolina.
Agri Supply's Georgia footprint includes retail locations in Tifton, Statesboro, and Vidalia, as well as a new break-bulk facility in Ellabell. The stores carry more than 26,000 items.
One of the newest members of Georgia Grown, Agri Supply joined

the program to show appreciation and offer support back to the agriculture community in Georgia.
"We strongly feel that a membership in Georgia Grown will provide us with resources to not only improve our business, but to also improve upon and increase our support of the Georgia community," said Michelle Mitchell, marketing manager for Agri Supply. "We want people to understand how important Georgia's agriculture industry is to everyone not only in Georgia but all over the world in providing food and other commodities." Although the company has grown and changed since 1962, its focus remains as clear as ever, Mitchell said. "Agri Supply's goal is to provide quality merchandise at the most reasonable price, to give our customers the best service possible, and to treat all customers fairly."

GUEST COLUMN: Growing A Stronger Georgia

By U.S. Sen. David Perdue

One of Georgia's richest assets is our diverse and

vibrant agricultural community. Traveling across the state

with Agriculture Commissioner Gary Black over the past

two years, I've met with many family farmers and indus-

try leaders who keep it growing.

While I have only spent a few weeks in Washington, I

have an incredible sense of responsibility in representing

our state's agricultural interests. As a member of the Sen-

ate Agriculture Committee, my goal is to be a strong voice

PERDUE

for our local farmers. In fact, during my first committee hearing we invited Ronnie Lee of Bronwood in Terrell

County to share his personal experience in the field. Washington can learn a lot

from Georgia's farmers and how federal policies impact them directly.

Our nation remains in a full-blown fiscal crisis. Georgians are frustrated, and

justifiably so, by the onslaught of federal intrusion into the lives of farmers and

their families. I heard repeatedly that we must act now to create common sense

policies that push back against the federal government's burdensome overreach.

There are several issues that must be addressed if we are going to promote a

safe, secure and robust agriculture industry in the future, and my business expe-

rience gives me a unique perspective to tackle these issues.

Farm policies have done a great deal for agriculture in this country, pro-

viding a safety net for producers during hard times, creating conservation

programs that encourage stewardship of land and water, and establishing

partnerships for research. However, agriculture now sees a more intrusive and

burdensome regulatory climate. Farmers across our state are small business

owners. They understand, like I do, that these excessive regulations have a

negative effect on their businesses. Likewise, consumers see higher prices at

the grocery store. Simply put, we must reign in these out-of-control regulators.

We must grow access to skilled and legal labor as it is a critical compo-

nent to the sustainability of agriculture. American agriculture needs a stable

workforce, and Georgia farmers need a workable documentation program for

migrant laborers. A March 2014 report released by the Partnership for a New

American Economy and the Agriculture Coalition for Immigration Reform

found that "labor challenges faced by U.S. farmers and the inadequacies of the

H2-A visa program are a key reason why American farmers have been unable

to maintain their share of the domestic market." Our state's farmers deserve a

program that makes them successful and sustainable for years to come.

Another area of great potential is our state's agricultural exports. Currently,

Georgia's food and fiber exports are nearly a quarter of the percentage of farm

gate value -- almost $3 billion. In 2013, the United States provided more than

$144 billion in exports, and Georgia's contribution was roughly two percent of

total exports. But the world will be counting on Georgia to help feed its grow-

ing population. By 2050, the world is expected to have a population of 9 billion

people. It is imperative that food and fiber production is able to sustain this sort

of growth going forward.

The only way that we are going to emerge stronger is through rededicating

ourselves to the founding principles of economic opportunity, fiscal respon-

sibility, limited government, and individual liberty. My commitment to these

ideas remains strong, and they will form the backbone of my service here in the

United States Senate. I remain humbled, sobered, and encouraged as I fight for

Georgians. My wife, Bonnie, and I ask for your prayers, input, and advice as

we, together, seek to better the great state of Georgia and our nation.

GUEST COLUMN: Don't let the bed bugs bite!

By Caralee Hagood

Maybe you've heard that bed bugs are making a comeback, and that news has you

asking yourself: How do I keep from getting them? Do I have them? And how do I get

rid of them?

April is National Pest Management Month, which makes this a good time to talk

about one of mankind's newest (old) pests. First of all, let's debunk some urban

myths. The cleanliness of your home is not a factor. Bedbugs are veteran hitchhikers

and chances are you brought them home from traveling, possibly from a hotel room.

You may say, "But I only stay at 4-star hotels." It doesn't matter. Bed bugs want your

blood, not your money. Whether or not they are able to transmit disease is still up for

PERDUE

debate, but regardless, who wants to sleep with biting bugs? How do I keep from getting bed bugs?

Go to websites like www.epa.gov/bedbugs and search for pictures of bed bugs and familiarize yourself

with what they look like. Also, take a look at the inspection tips. For example, when first checking into

a hotel room, place your luggage in the bath tub. This is the least likely place for bed bugs to hide. Then

check the mattress, the covers, and behind the head board and any pictures above the bed, at a minimum.

Look for fresh or dried blood spots in the areas and watch for the adult bed bugs, which are brownish. Also,

look for shed skins called exoskeletons or immature bed bugs called nymphs that will be light tan in color

before they darken after their first blood meal.

How do I know I have bed bugs?

Are you waking up with red spots or bites, especially around your torso? Do you see any bugs on or

around the bed at night? Live adult bed bugs are best seen at night since they are nocturnal.

How I get rid of bed bugs?

If your inspection proves you have bed bugs, don't ignore them. They will not go away. Also, resist

the urge to drag the mattress through the house and out to the curb. By doing this you risk having adults,

nymphs and eggs drop off and infest other rooms, making treatment more costly. Bed bug eradication is not

a do-it-yourself project.

Using pesticides in or around an ultra-sensitive area such as a bed and bedding without following the

pesticide label can result in an unsafe environment. Pesticides that are only labeled for the outdoors must

not be used. There are many other areas that will need treating. Bed bugs can and will hide in the tiniest of

cracks. They've been found in dressers, telephones, alarm clocks, and bed springs. A professional should be

called to verify that there are bed bugs present before doing any treatment or removing any items. An as-

sessment can then be made as to what areas are infested. For example, if they have been left untreated they

may migrate out to your couch or easy chair; after all, they want to be where you are.

The professional can then make recommendations on the best way to remedy the problem. Several meth-

ods can be employed. Most likely, a combination of pesticides and other management strategies such as heat

treatments will be used. To ensure that a company is licensed to treat bed bugs, visit our website. And then

sleep tight knowing the bed bugs won't bite!

Arty's Garden: Shed your plant prejudices!

PAGE 7

Prejudice is alive and well in the world of horticulture -- not against people but against specific plants and whole groups of plants. I have witnessed it while working in the nursery business and as a garden communicator.
Here are a few prejudices I have encountered: Annuals | "I don't want an annual; I want the kind that comes back every year." I've heard this many times. Some believe perennials are better or less work than annuals. They're not. There's room for both in the garden. Deciduous shrubs | Some people only want evergreens. They act as if they aren't getting their money's worth if they buy a shrub that sheds its leaves, even if the shrub has colorful fall foliage. A landscape of all evergreens can be static and boring. If the evergreens are dark green, it can be gloomy. Forsythia and flowering quince, for example, would not be as bright and beautiful with leaves year-round. Part of their glory is the way flowers burst forth from their bare stems. Tall flowers | Today it is hard to find tall and moderately tall varieties that were common 25 years ago, and many people refuse to consider anything taller than a foot. "Dwarf" is not necessarily better; if flowers get any shorter they will be underground. A diversity of plant heights adds interest and excitement to a garden. Would you listen to a symphony that only had low notes? Coarse texture | Some condemn large-leaved plants like catalpa, bigleaf magnolia and fig as being difficult to use in the landscape because they are "too coarse." A garden of all fine-textured plants can look busy and unfocused. A combination of different textures is most pleasing.

Native plants | Perhaps because they could be found growing in the wild without human aid, people saw no need to invite native plants into the garden. Unfortunately, prejudice still exists against them, but this is changing. However, in some cases, it has swung in the opposite direction with people shunning non-native plants. Make decisions based on a plant's merits as well as your wants and needs.
Names | It may be hard to believe, but some people reject plants because they don't like their names. When ancient peoples named plants, they didn't do it with marketing in mind. "Redvein enkianthus" and "hairy toad lily" may sound homely, but they are worthwhile, beautiful plants. Trust me.
Speaking of names, I've seen people refuse to consider our beautiful native and well-behaved coral honeysuckle (Lonicera sempervirens) because they only associate "honeysuckle" with the weedy and out-of-control Japanese honeysuckle (Lonicera japonica). Should you be blamed for the behavior of your crazy cousins?
Don't let prejudice, pre-conceived notions or narrow-mindedness keep you from considering some of the great plants we can grow. Open your mind and your garden.

Second Annual Return to the Arch Alumni Seminar, with the theme:
"Food for Thought"

FEATURE RECIPE: Popcorn cake

Featuring Food Network Star and alumnus Alton Brown.
May 1-3 www.alumni.uga.edu

12 cups popped popcorn 1 pound marshmallows pound butter cup canola or vegetable oil 2 cups Reese's pieces * 1 cup salted peanuts *
Spray a Bundt or tube pan with pan coating. Combine marshmallows, butter and oil in a large microwave-proof bowl. Heat for 2 minutes. Stir until melted. Spray another bowl with pan coating. Combine popcorn, marshmallow mixture, Reese's pieces and peanuts. Fold mixture until all ingredients are distributed well. Pour mixture into a prepared pan, press down firmly. Unmold onto cake plate.
*Feel free to use your imagination and substitute different color candies and flavors to suit your occasion. Pastel-colored M&M'S and rainbow sprinkles would make a beautiful Easter confection; spice drops and peanuts would work well in the fall and at Thanksgiving; red and green M&M'S and sprinkles or mint M&M's and mint chocolate morsels would add some fun flavor to your Christmas celebrations.

Mitchell County Ninth-Grader Wins Georgia 4-H
Pantry Pride Recipe Contest
Kyle Hamilton of Mitchell County 4-H was the winner of the first Georgia 4-H Pantry Pride Recipe Contest held last fall at the Georgia National Fair. Hamilton, a ninth-grade student at Baconton Community Charter School in Mitchell County, competed against 43 other Georgia 4-H'ers in the statewide Pantry Pride Recipe Contest. The contest is an initiative in partnership among the Arby's Foundation, Georgia 4-H, and the Georgia Food Bank Association.
"It's inspiring to see so many programs work together to help raise awareness among food insecurity in Georgia," said Michele Chivore, campaign director, Georgia Food Bank Association. "Kyle's and the other Georgia 4-H'ers' recipes are proof that food pantries can and do provided nutritious and delicious meals for Georgia's families."
Hamilton's winning recipe, "Cowboy Soup," earned him and his school a visit from the Arby's Food Truck. The food truck delivered free Arby's food and provided games and activities for the entire school. Additionally, Hamilton will shadow a celebrity chef for a day and will be featured on the Georgia Department of Agriculture's website and Georgia Farm Monitor's "Meals in the Field" segment.
For more information on the Georgia Food Bank Association, visit their website or contact Michele Chivore at michele.chivore@georgiafoodbankassociation.org or (678) 365-4278.

then move to the quarantined birds. Clean your boots, change your clothes and wash your hands and equipment before re-entering the area of the home flock.
Practice safe handling
As backyard flocks have gained popularity, the number of poultry-related salmonella outbreaks has also increased. Most of these outbreaks occur between March and May, the prime chick-buying season. Young children make up nearly half of the affected population, and most of those cases resulted from unsanitary practices, such as kissing and snuggling baby chicks or keeping chicks in the home. To avoid contamination, keep chicks out of the house and make

sure everyone who handles them immediately washes their hands with soap and warm water.
Backyard chickens can provide many seasons of enjoyment, fulfillment and nutritious food. Starting with disease-free chicks and following good management practices will keep your chickens productive, and your flock and family healthy.
For more information on raising healthy backyard flocks, see UGA Extension's circular "Management Guide for the Backyard Flock" at extension.uga.edu/publications/detail. cfm?number=C969.

Protect Your Flock from Avian Influenza

By Amy H. Carter
Most everyone around your household is susceptible to the flu: You. Your children. Your dog. Your chickens. Yes, even animals get the flu. The Avian Influenza virus is present in wild waterfowl and occasionally is transmitted to domestic poultry, turkey and quail.
In recent months a highly infective strain of the virus has been detected in wild birds, captive wild birds, backyard poultry and commercial poultry in eight states of the U.S. Although the virus has not caused any human illness, Georgia's State Veterinarian Dr. Robert Cobb said it is best to keep domestic poultry away from wild birds, especially during migratory seasons like the spring.
The more common low pathogenic form of the bird flu causes mild illness in some birds, although rarely in those carrying the virus. High pathogenic avian influenza causes severe illness and rapid death in poultry. The detection of Avian Influenza in commercial chicken populations will dramatically affect export of poultry and poultry products.
Avian Influenza is capable of becoming infectious to humans, but the strains of the virus detected in the U.S. have not caused any human illnesses to date. Human outbreaks of bird flu that have made news in the last decade were primarily documented among people working around high concentrations of infected chickens, such as chicken houses and live bird markets, Cobb said. Georgia is a leading producer of commercial poultry which is carefully screened for various avian diseases including influenza, but the state has no live bird markets.
"It is important to know that avian influenza is not a food safety concern," Cobb explained. "When identified, all infected commercial poultry is destroyed and does not enter the food chain. In backyard poultry, it is recommended to utilize good biosecurity measures in handling raw poultry and to cook poultry well."
The U.S. Department of Agriculture defines biosecurity as "doing everything you can to reduce the chances of an infectious disease being carried onto your farm by people, animals, equipment or vehicles. It also means doing everything you can to reduce the chance of disease leaving your farm."

Measures recommended by the USDA include:
u Keep Your Distance: Restrict access to your property and your poultry.
u Keep It Clean: Wear clean clothes, scrub your shoes/boots with disinfectant, and wash hands thoroughly. Keep equipment and vehicles clean. Control wild birds and rodents.
u Don't Haul Disease Home: After visiting other farms, feed lots, petting zoos, auctions, or other places with livestock and poultry, clean and disinfect your truck and car tires and equipment before going home. Change clothes and wash your hands before returning to your own animals.
u Don't Borrow Disease from Your Neighbor: Do not share equipment, tools, or other supplies with other livestock or poultry owners. If you do share be sure to clean and disinfect before returning.
u Look for Signs of Infectious Diseases: Know what diseases are of concern for your flock and keep watch for unusual signs or behaviors, severe illness, and/ or sudden deaths. Assess the health of your flock daily.
u Report Sick Animals: Report serious or unusual animal health problems to your veterinarian, or to the Georgia State Veterinarian at 404.656.3667 or the U.S. Department of Agriculture Area Veterinarian in Charge at 770.761.5420.
