Wisconsin hatchery owner sees seasonal avian flu as the ‘new normal’

Wisconsin hatchery owner sees seasonal avian flu as the ‘new normal’

Birds from a backyard chicken flock in Racine were recent casualties in a string of bird flu cases in Wisconsin this year. The birds were killed to prevent spreading the disease further.

Dr. Darlene Konkle, state veterinarian from the Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection, told WPR’s “Wisconsin Today” that the highly pathogenic avian influenza, or bird flu, is expected to spread more as wild birds continue migrating through the fall.

“Right now, we’re not at the peaks we were last year,” Konkle said. “We’ve seen an uptick in cases across the country, particularly in the northern tier of states, in the past few weeks. And of course, we’re going into the fall season, which is peak migration for a lot of wild waterfowl.”

News with a little more humanity

WPR’s “Wisconsin Today” newsletter keeps you connected to the state you love without feeling overwhelmed. No paywall. No agenda. No corporate filter.

Konkle said avian influenza can be fatal to all birds and spreads rapidly. Cows are also susceptible to avian flu, although so far this year, no cows in Wisconsin have tested positive, as has happened in 18 other states.

Konkle said keeping cows and other animals safe from bird flu in Wisconsin requires strict adherence to biosecurity measures and heightened awareness of the risks of the disease.

“We’re really encouraging flock and livestock owners in general to keep good biosecurity practices in place,” Konkle said. “Steps can be really simple, like washing hands and keeping equipment clean, or more complicated, like having an employee shower in and out.”

Konkle said backyard flock owners should pay attention to bird flu symptoms in their flock like sneezing, a drop in egg production, a drop in feed and water intake, and sudden death. Other signs and precautions can be found on the DATCP website.

Nick Levendoski, owner of Sunnyside Hatchery in Beaver Dam and president of the Wisconsin Poultry and Egg Industries Association, also joined “Wisconsin Today” to explain how avian flu has affected the hatchery industry.

The following was edited for clarity and brevity.

Rob Ferrett: How does your work differ from what someone might think of as a typical chicken farm?

Nick Levendoski: Well, there’s a lot of things different at the hatchery versus a typical chicken farm. For one: We’re a very seasonal operation. We hatch chicks 52 weeks a year, but right now is certainly the lowest amount of volume that we’re hatching out. But we’ve got our sights set on the spring when we really get to start ramping up for the folks that want to get their baby chicks for Easter time, and their traditional meat birds for next spring.

RF: On a practical level, what does “biosecurity” mean? What kind of measures are you taking above and beyond what you usually do?

NL: A lot of farmers that work with us are Amish folks. It’s not advised to visit your neighbor’s chicken operation. Certainly there’s no exchanging of birds between one premise to another. And also, our (workers) are not to have backyard poultry of their own. There’s just too much vulnerability there, having backyard birds, and then doing the daily chores in the breeder flocks.

So it’s just about increasing the awareness for people. And then higher numbers of dip pans, bleach at doorways and stuff like that. All those precaution areas certainly are heightened more so than they have in the past, especially the last five or six years when avian influenza became a real issue versus a theoretical one.

But we also do all-in, all-out on these flocks. So birds stay in production for a little over a year, and then we get rid of that flock, and we start with a brand new flock every year. So we don’t have older birds communicating with younger birds or transmitting any types of diseases.

RF: We saw at least one positive bird flu case in a Racine backyard flock. There’s concerns that wild birds might spread the disease to domestic birds. What do you tell your customers who are newer to keeping poultry?

NL: The main thing is just to keep the interaction between wild birds and their domestic birds at a minimum. That’s the biggest one. And then also understand that birds seasonally have mild colds. They do have some mild respiratory issues associated with backyard flocks. But if you see your birds not eating, egg production falling off the wagon, and especially unexpected or higher than normal mortality, get on the phone with DATCP. Call your veterinarian. Let’s get the wheels in motion because it’s important to get that communicated so you’re not putting anybody else’s flocks at risk.

RF: As the president of the Wisconsin Poultry and Egg Industries Association, what are you hearing from members of that organization?

NL: We’ve grown a bit accustomed to these flare-ups. It always seems to coincide with birds migrating. So it’s becoming more of a concern. Before, it was more theoretical; “Let’s try to keep that out of our flocks.” And now, even with these increased biosecurity measures, there still are commercial flocks that are vulnerable. You still have employees that can bring in the virus on their boots, or through air ducts. There’s a lot of different vectors that you have minimal control over. I guess we’re just growing accustomed to reacting when it hits, but I think it’s becoming the new normal.

TV channel, kickoff time announced for Wisconsin’s Week 9 game at Oregon

TV channel, kickoff time announced for Wisconsin’s Week 9 game at Oregon

The Wisconsin Badgers and Oregon Ducks will kick off at 7 p.m. ET, 6 p.m. CT from Autzen Stadium in Eugene, Oregon, next Saturday. The game will be broadcast on Fox Sports 1.

Wisconsin enters the game at 2-5 following a 34-0 loss to Ohio State in Week 7. The team has lost five straight games since starting the season 2-0, the last two by a combined margin of 71-0. After Saturday’s loss, Wisconsin still hasn’t defeated a Power Four opponent since a 23-3 win over Northwestern on Oct. 19, 2024.

Oregon, on the other hand, currently sits within the nation’s top 10 following its blowout win over Rutgers in Week 8. The team is 6-1 (3-1 Big Ten) through seven games, the one loss coming to the No. 3-ranked and undefeated Indiana Hoosiers.

Wisconsin is sure to be a significant underdog when it travels west next weekend. A night-game environment at Autzen Stadium should make a potential upset bid even more difficult.

Carnell Tate, Ohio State football start fast, cruise to 34-0 win at Wisconsin: Takeaways

Carnell Tate, Ohio State football start fast, cruise to 34-0 win at Wisconsin: Takeaways

MADISON, Wis. – Julian Sayin threw for a career-high 394 yards and four touchdowns, Carnell Tate had his first multi-touchdown game of the season and No. 1 Ohio State took care of Wisconsin in its latest lopsided win.

After beating No. 17 Illinois 34-16 on Oct. 11, the Buckeyes beat the Badgers 34-0 as Wisconsin was shut out for a second consecutive game.

Before the Wisconsin crowd could “jump around” after the third quarter, the Buckeyes (7-0, 4-0 Big Ten) had already built a 27-0 lead that felt more lopsided than the score showed. A 2-yard touchdown pass to Will Kacmarek with 1:15 left in the third made it a 27-point lead, and Wisconsin fans were already chanting for coach Luke Fickell to be fired when the quarter back to a close.

To that point, Ohio State had amassed 415 yards of total offense while the Badgers (2-5, 0-4) had only 76.

Here are the game’s key moments and takeaways:

Ohio State defense was dominating once again

This matchup heavily favored the Buckeyes going into the game, and the Ohio State defense did not disappoint. Ohio State entered the game No. 1 nationally in scoring defense at 6.8 points per game, fourth in total defense at 229.0 yards allowed per game and top-10 in both rushing and passing defense.

Against a Wisconsin offense last in the Big Ten in scoring (15.5 points per game) and total offense (292.5 yards per game), the Buckeyes were in control throughout.

Ohio State’s Carnell Tate has another big game

The highlight of the game was Ohio State’s first touchdown. After the Buckeyes forced a three-and-out on the first possession of the game, Sayin steadily moved the ball down the field before finding the end zone on a 33-yard touchdown pass to Tate. The wideout came up with the ball despite coverage by two Wisconsin defenders and hung onto it even as his helmet was knocked off in the process.

Sayin found Tate on Ohio State’s final play of the first quarter, a 10-yard touchdown pass that put the Buckeyes ahead 17-0 with four seconds left in the quarter.

Ohio State running game again struggles to find traction

Much of the talk leading into the game was about whether the Buckeyes could establish a more consistent rushing attack than the one averaging 4.7 yards per rush and had amassed only 2.9 per carry the week before at Illinois. Instead, the Buckeyes threw those thoughts to the wind – and the ball as well. Ohio State marched down the field on its opening drive with Sayin completing all eight of his passes for 95 yards as the Buckeyes ran it just once for minus-1 yard.

Fifteen of Ohio State’s first 20 plays were passes, and the Buckeyes had 169 passing yards and 18 rushing yards while building a 17-0 lead during the first quarter. Ohio State scored its first 10 points without picking up a yard on the ground. At halftime, Sayin was 23 of 26 for 235 yards and the Buckeyes had carried the ball nine times for 30 yards.

Wisconsin entered the game with the No. 19 rush defense in the country, allowing 97.5 yards per game.

Ohio State special teams struggle again

Another game, another handful of plays on special teams that seem like cause for concern.

Ohio State began the day ranked 101st nationally in punting average at 41.2 yards per punt. Joe McGuire had nine of the 10 punts, averaging 42.3 yards per punt, and his lone first-half punt went for 42 yards to give Wisconsin the ball on its own 36-yard line. Kicker Jayden Fielding’s only miss on five field goal attempts this year was from 53 yards, but after making a 38-yarder in the first quarter he was wide right on a 38-yarder with 1:07 left in the first half.

The most egregious example, though, came when Wisconsin punter Sean West picked up roughly 20 yards to convert a fourth-and-19 play on the first play of the fourth quarter as students were already heading for the exits immediately after “Jump Around” had finished playing through the speakers. It was the longest play of the game for the Badgers to that point.

It only delayed the inevitable, however. The drive still ended with a Wisconsin punt — for real, this time.
