Another attempt to overburden small farmers with paperwork and beauraucracy. I oppose this repeal of 140 and replacement with 141 if it requires animal tracking systems. Requiring the identification/tracking of every animal in Virginia is not practical and too expensive. Does this mean that everyone who orders a couple of chickens for the backyard must comply with identification/registration rules? That is too onerous.
