I’m a private poultry veterinary consultant. I have clients in British Columbia, Canada, Washington, Oregon, California, Colorado, Utah and Montana. I work with all poultry species (layers, turkeys, broilers, ducks, squab (pigeons) both as commercial and breeders. We will have long days (12 hours +) and short days.
Students will perform all the duties I routinely perform including the following: taking blood and environmental samples, necropsy, performing Animal Welfare, FDA on-farm Audits, reviewing on farm bio-security protocols, reviewed BMP for poultry production (commercial and breeder level). Work with turkeys, squab, layers (Conventional, cage free & pastured raised) and broilers (conventional, ABF).
There will be some extensive travel, mostly by vehicle (California is a very big state). Students will be responsible for covering hotel and air travel costs. Hotels normally range from $62.00 to 90.00 per night (Best Western). I will do my best to keep this at a minimum as well as work with the student's arrival and departure schedule if we visit clients outside of California. When not traveling overnight, students will stay with my family as our guest. I will cover the student's meal expenses.
