Defra have implemented the registration of poultry flocks, with 50 or more birds, as a means to gather information on larger flocks and to aid disease control measures should the need arise.
Larger flocks of 350 birds, hatcheries and breeding flocks, should already be registered.
The Poultry Register Helpline 0800 634 1112 - will take new and late registrations (for premises with 50 or more birds) for those who haven’t had the need or an opportunity to register to date. Additional flocks of under 50 may also be registered.
The pages on the Defra website, have more information on:

- Who has to register?
- What are the benefits?
