Avian Influenza (H5N5) has been identified in a number of wild birds across the UK. Some of these have resulted in high mortality within the population. This is a reminder that AI is still a threat within the UK and excellent biosecurity should be practised at all times.

All keepers must register on the Scottish Bird Kept Register (SKBR) (exclusions apply), including those already registered on the Avian Registration Hub (ARH). If you don’t keep egg producing flocks or free-range chickens, only register on SKBR ➡️ keptbirdregister.service.gov.scot
