Oregon confirmed highly pathogenic avian influenza in a Clackamas County commercial flock, with 94,200 birds at an egg layer euthanized, pushing the state's total past 1 million domestic birds. The West Coast is also seeing more cases in poultry and dairy herds, including a 1.3 million-bird layer outbreak in California on October 28.
Culling of large commercial layer flocks reduces poultry and egg supply and can lift prices for poultry-based feed demand, while the spread across dairy herds adds to uncertainty for livestock markets.
