SCHEDULEBreeding or laying flocks of the species Gallus gallus

Laying flocks: sampling times5

The occupier must take samples from each laying flock on the holding—

a

when the birds are chicks;

b

two weeks before the date the flock is moved to a laying unit or (if they are not moved) the date they are expected to come into lay; and

c

every 15 weeks during the laying period, starting when the birds are between 22 and 26 weeks old.
