Pullorum-Typhoid tester Licenses
License Description We have 2 different types of blood tester licenses, one is for the general public (the private license $22/yr) and the other is for commercial breeder blood testers ($45/yr). Any member of the public, in Arkansas, can participate in the private school, and only individuals employed by poultry companies can participate in the commercial schools. They are issued licenses as it is required by Arkansas Code 2-40-205 Blood test training program (attached to this e-mail). This code states: a) No person shall perform any program or certifying blood tests on livestock or poultry unless the person has first completed a blood test training program designed and conducted by the State Veterinarian and has obtained a tester's permit from the State Veterinarian. b) These technicians shall be used at the market, where economically feasible, except when in violation of state or federal law or regulation.
