How will they control the potential for disease being tracked from one coop to the next?

Very Good Question, Our birds are healthy and they have been tested by the state, so I'm not worried that we will be spreading any disease. However, we are always concerned with the possibility of our birds getting sick. We will have our visitors use a disinfectant on their shoes and we will not allow anyone to come in contact with our birds or go inside our pens.
