Was wondering where. Lots of snow geese migrate through there (Middle Creek SP). These are largely huge commercial farms with lots of chickens in a warehouse type buildings. There are also similar large scale operations in surrounding counties that will probably be impacted.

The only other large egg production area in Pennsylvania that I’m familiar with is in Mifflintown County NW of Harrisburg. Most of the chicken farms I’ve seen in the Big Valley are Amish run (Lancaster high Amish population but a different sect) but those chickens are allowed to roam outside; enjoyable to literally watch a thousand birds high tail it to the barn at feeding time. Not sure how these birds will fare since the spend a lot of time outside exposed to wild birds.
