Any business or poultry keeper with 50 or more birds is required by law to register its flock with Defra (the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs). You can contact Defra on 08459 335577 or you could visit its website. Voluntary registration scheme
To support businesses and poultry keepers with fewer than 50 birds we have set up a voluntary registration scheme. As well as registering your flock, membership of the scheme gives you up-to-date information and advice on what to do in the event of an outbreak of bird flu within South Gloucestershire. If you would like to be included on the register please contact us.
