I got this in an email today. We almost lost the ability to get baby chicks shipped by USPS a few years ago and Murray McMurray was a leader in getting the post office to keep shipping them. This also may be a DOT....if your prep includes your own chicken flock, you may want to order them ASAP. Even if it's just the parent stock to raise your own flock later. Get the book Chicken Tractor by Andy Lee and Pat Foreman. Easy way to keep a few chickens in even a small, urban setting. Keeping a rooster to fertilize the eggs might be a problem (crowing). But, with this method, most neighbors wouldn't even know you had hens if the chicken tractor was kept in a garden with a solid fence around it or enough plant growth to hide it.

We Need Your Help
The ability to ship poultry to you is being threatened by unwarranted accusations
from animal rights groups AND the inability of the Post Office and their air
carriers to deliver our products in a timely and efficient manner.
On the Bird Shippers of America website ( http://www.birdshippers.org/ ) is a
summary of the legislation Senator Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) introduced in
the U.S. Senate on Friday, March 10th. The three points Senator Grassley
makes, as well as information regarding avian influenza (Bird Flu), are
extremely important to the continued success of shipping live poultry
through the U.S. Postal System.
We need your help, and the help of your friends, to make this proposal - law.
For your convenience we have set up a webpage on the Bird Shippers of America website
( www.birdshippers.com/takeAction.html ) where you can print a
custom letter to be Mailed or Faxed to each of your Senators.
If you feel strongly about your right to receive birds through the
mail, or your business or hobby would endure severe hardships if
you could not receive birds, please take the time to submit your letter.
All of us in the bird shipping business greatly appreciate your help in
this most important issue.
Thank you.
