INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) -- Three more Indiana farms have been quarantined after the detection of avian influenza among birds, the State Board of Animal Health announced Thursday night.

So far in 2025, 12 farms have dealt with bird flu, the board says on an online dashboard.

Bird farms within about 12 miles of two of the newly quarantined sites are under surveillance for any spread of bird flu.

One of the newly quarantined farms, in Jay County in east central Indiana, has 18,850 turkeys. Nearby farms in Adams and Jay counties are under surveillance.

Another newly quarantined farm is a commercial duck breeder with 3,846 birds in LaGrange County in northeastern Indiana. Nearby farms in Elkhart, LaGrange, Noble and St. Joseph counties are under surveillance.

Finally, the other quarantined farm is a "mixed-species hobby flock" with 90 birds in Jasper County in northwest Indiana.

So far in February, three farms have been "depopulated," affecting 14,075 turkeys in Washington County; a noncommercial flock with 70 birds in Randolph County; and two commercial egg layer farms in Jay County with a combined total of 1,454,605 birds. Another Jay County operation with more than 1.2 million commercial egg layers remained under quarantine after the state reported bird flu there on Feb. 14.

Indiana's biggest outbreak so far this happened in January in Jackson County, leading to 2.8 million chickens dying or being killed to prevent the flu's spread.

The Indiana Board of Animal Health also reports on its dashboard that two Indiana farms that had bird flu in early 2024 are being allowed to restock.
