An Arizona farm and one of the largest egg producers in the U.S. confirmed on Friday that it has lost nearly its entire chicken population in the state.
According to Hickman’s Family Farms, about six million birds have been lost due to bird flu. [emphasis added]
“I’m here today to tell you that we’ve lost 95% of the chickens we have in the state,” Glenn Hickman, Hickman’s Family Farms’ president and CEO, said.
Hickman said hens at one of the farms began showing symptoms two weeks ago. Swabs were sent to the University of Arizona for analysis, and bird flu was detected.

Clearly, Glenn Hickman is very unhappy with Robert Kennedy Jr.'s approach to fighting avian flu.
