The END Quarantine was lifted in California on September 16, 2003. These pages will remain for historical purposes. See further links in regard to the Quarantine removal.
There is a serious outbreak of Exotic Newcastle Disease in Southern California which originated in fighting gamecock and was recognized in late September, 2002. Gamecock fighting itself is illegal in the State of California. Since many things have changed since we began this site, if you are a first time visitor, please see our original introduction message which has been moved for the convenience of our repeat visitors.
Those who own any birds should be very aware of not only the story as it unfolds but all precautions you can take to protect your own birds. Do not take this lightly! This is deadly with a mortality rate of 90-95%!
