If domestic poultry (farm birds) exhibit signs of avian influenza, producers should consult their veterinary professional and notify federal or state animal health officials as they normally would. Nationally, sick or dead farm birds can be reported to USDA toll-free at 1-866-536-7593, or in Tennessee, contact the State Veterinarian’s Office at 615-837-5120.
