The other way of insuring that you control disease transmission is by making the space between one batch and the other is not less than 20 meters. This can help you to contain any infection in one place if it comes.or dip litter system you may need to do regular disinfection with a mild disinfectant even if the birds are in the house, this helps to reduces on the microbial challenges to the bird.
