    Bird flu is very deadly for chickens. Testing or not testing doesn’t affect mortality rate. It’s 75%-100% either way.

    Not testing would mean they are not culling before it spreads therefore more dead chickens and fewer eggs.

    This is not the same as testing cows where there is much lower mortality rate. In cows it results in lower milk production.
