Class Description

Handouts and materials will be provided.
Instructor
Dr. Bruce Singbeil is a veterinarian at Crossroads Vet in Bellevue and lives on Engustment Farm between Woodinville and Duvall. For over 10 years, he has kept several kinds of birds and livestock on his farm. At his clinic, he tends to ill birds and livestock every day. He maintains that most poultry problems are preventable and he wants the poultry community to be smart about poultry health. His goal is to raise awareness about rearing the animals properly to prevent illnesses and increase the enjoyment of having chickens at home or on the farm.
