• Test exhibition birds within 90 days of the exhibition  OR
• Purchase exhibition birds from NPIP sources (flock, hatchery or retail location selling from an NPIP-approved source) 
•  AND complete a Poultry Exhibition Statement of Origin form SFN 60329 (2-2013), including required signatures. This form must accompany the birds to exhibits/shows. The form can be found on the ND Department of Agriculture’s website: www.nd.gov/ndda/program/national-poultry-improvement-plan
