There really was a problem in 2011 with salmonella in a hatchery. Makes me wonder where the hatchery bought their eggs and chickens so none of us end up with sick chickens. I do not believe the fed gov will make the demand to chip our backyard chickens, too much of a food hazard and expense. They've settled for GPS numbers for flocks.

THIS IS A SETUP by the USDA !!! They are pushing for the RFID chips in EVERY dang chicken and animal everywhere in the country!!!
Put your congressperson's name in front of this message and post it on their facebook page and email it to their office !!! IMPORTANT !!!
Dear XXYYZZ - we EXPECT that you WILL work to eliminate funding for the USDA's Animal Traceability rule. The agency has told the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) that the rule is not "economically significant," but that is not true. The rule as proposed by USDA would impose significant costs on independent ranchers, family farmers, backyard poultry owners and livestock businesses.
In a time of economic hardship, it makes no sense to spend our tax dollars on this program when USDA hasn't even properly evaluated the costs or identified specific, concrete benefits. Please work to stop the funding for this unnecessary and burdensome program.
