Flock Diagnostics operates on the premise that disease prevention is more cost effective than treating disease.

A small sampling of the services provided include:

BIOSECURITY: Are my premises secure at this moment. If not how do I improve the biosecurity? Do I need biosecurity or is it merely a nuisance? A buzzword? In short, biosecurity means isolating your birds to the maximal practical extent. It means keeping them isolated from other humans, other birds, rodents and insects too. Biosecurity need not be complicated. In fact, it is best to follow the K.I.S.S. (Keep It Simple Sweetie) principle. Complicated cumbersome procedures are rarely followed for long.

VACCINATION: What vaccinations are available for my birds? How often is vaccination recommended? Vaccinations are largely unavailable for many of the  "minor" species, including peafowl, mallards, geese, banties, pigeons and doves and many others. This unavailability places a greater emphasis on biosecurity. 

NUTRITION: Am I getting all I'm paying for? Am I getting something I do not need or want? If you purchase feed in bulk, save a 1 pound sample bag from each load or lot of feed delivered to your farm. Use a paper bag. Plastic sacks may absorb or bind some materials. 

DIAGNOSTICS: Sometimes despite all efforts a flock is affected by disease. Flock Diagnostics will arrange necropsy, toxicology, bacteriology, virology, etc as necessary to attempt to arrive at a definitive diagnosis. Flock owners must understand however, that in some instances despite the best of efforts no definitive diagnosis will be possible. Flock owners will be expected to pay laboratory services and shipping.
