I want to get some pet chickens as I love them but im worried..?

I adore chickens/chicks, as theyre so adorable and i think theyre just amazing. But im a extreme health freak, (i didnt used to be but have recently devoloped a kind of emetophobia) so im worried, could I catch A diesease of the chicken that could cause me to be ill..
I dont eat chicken (meat) or eggs so i wouldnt catch it that way.

If you keep chickens have you ever caught anything from them?
I love them so much.

Nope, never cought anything and never heard of anyone catching anything. And you wont from eating the eggs either. Iif youve got bird flu on your mind then dont panic, the chances of chickens catching bird flu in a domestic situation is miniscule.
Go ahead and get some! you'll regret it if you dont, they're lovely. Shame about you not eating the eggs though, they are much more tasty than shop bought ones...
