Volodin proposed that the government adjust the rules for animal registration: chicken owners pecked to death The State Duma was inundated with complaints 

Chairman of the State Duma Vyacheslav Volodin reported numerous complaints about government decree No. 550. According to the new regulations, livestock and poultry owners were required to register every animal starting September 1. Volodin proposed adjusting the regulations or repealing some provisions entirely. 

According to Volodin, the Ministry of Agriculture and the Ministry of Economic Development should have first considered how people would benefit from the new laws, rather than creating problems for them.

"It is necessary to create conditions for the development of private farms, rather than making decisions under the auspices of control and the fight for sanitary well-being, which would have been better discussed beforehand with rural residents, deputies, and experts."- said he.  

From today, poultry owners will have to Register and label it. The new rules apply to both farmers and private households with more than ten chickens, ducks, geese, or turkeys. The data must be entered into the Horriot system, which is part of the state-run VetIS system.

The registration procedure is free, but owners will have to attach a plate with a group number to the chicken coop themselves and submit this information to the state veterinary station.  

Poultry owners flooded government agencies with complaints and social media with humorous videos. They stagedemergency meetings» in chicken coops and brought People at the MFC discussed when chickens would have to register on the MAX social network and register for military service. They also wondered which agency to contact if a chicken died of old age or because it needed to be used for soup.
