More than 22,000 turkeys are being culled as a precautionary measure on new premises near the farm where the H5N1 bird flu virus was confirmed yesterday.
The sites are all operated by the same company which owns the farm where the initial outbreak happened in Redgrave near Diss.
All are within the existing 10 kilometre surveillance zone and were identified as having had "dangerous contact" with the original infected site.
