Linda Ferguson emailed to ask that I add that she is "
NPIP certified" to her
Ameraucana Directory listing. This is something I haven't done to date, but if others want it included please let me know.
I've maintained an NPIP flock for decades as a convenience, since it is pretty much required to sell poultry into other states. It also means the birds I take to shows don't have to be tested for Pullorum–Typhoid , since they are from an NPIP flock and I just supply the flock number. In Michigan the state certifies testers once a year, in early March, and I recommend that exhibitors get certified so they can test their birds and eliminate having them tested just before cooping in at shows or trying to find someone to do it prior. If you don't show and don't sell out of state I would say don't bother with it.
FYI...
Here are their breed/variety codes that pertain to Ameraucanas:
