Hi all. I've been reading about this nasty bug for a couple of months. It is present in wild rabbits here in AZ and it's got me thinking about it.
Does anyone practice biosecurity? If so, what's your procedure?
I'll go first: I have chickens and so had biosecurity measures in place well before I got a rabbit. I never share any equipment with others and have specific shoes that never leave my property. I don't let anyone wear shoes into my house and don't allow people into my backyard. When my husband works at a cement plant near the river bed he has to dip his boot soles in a 10% bleach solution and leave them in the garage to dry. I have two pairs if shoes I wear out so those get the same treatment, especially if we've been to the park. I don't let my bunny outside right now either.
So what safety precautions are you taking?
