I am in the process of defending my right to keep my pet ducks and one of the attacks against them is the risk of bird flu.  They are a breed that cannot fly and the only water they are exposed to besides their drinking water is a bathtub or a kiddie pool.  They stay confined in my yard.  There&amp;#39;s never been H5N1 in North or South America.  They&amp;#39;re not giving anyone bird flu.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I wouldn&amp;#39;t quote your site, though I find it useful and informative, because of the finger-pointing of ducks in defense of chickens.  Is it necessary?</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2680664903011977089/9217944836350308082/comments/default/7389689173161534588'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2680664903011977089/9217944836350308082/comments/default/7389689173161534588'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.urbanchickens.net/2009/04/urban-chickens-solving-spread-of-bird.html?showComment=1264084432721#c7389689173161534588' title=''/><author><name>glitterfae2000</name><uri>http://openid.aol.com/glitterfae2000</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://www.urbanchickens.net/2009/04/urban-chickens-solving-spread-of-bird.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2680664903011977089.post-9217944836350308082' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2680664903011977089/posts/default/9217944836350308082' type='text/html'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2680664903011977089.post-2091306705582602788</id><published>2009-04-18T06:13:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-04-18T06:13:00.000-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Great post!
