A recent advisory from the Centers for Disease Control is warning Americans of the hazards of contact with chickens, including the risk of catching salmonella.
This year alone, the CDC has recorded 1,003 cases of salmonella across the U.S., including two deaths. The agency's suggestions include always washing your hands with soap and water after touching backyard poultry, not letting chickens inside the house and setting aside a separate pair of shoes to wear while taking care of backyard birds.
The most unusual line in the CDC advisory, though, warns owners not to "kiss backyard poultry or snuggle them and then touch your face or mouth." [This is really a thing? ]

If the Colonel's chickens are supposed to be finger-lickin' good, I suppose kissing your chicken isn't that much of a stretch.

Yes, I suppose I could agree with you ... but then we'd both be wrong, wouldn't we?
Re: A Warning From The CDC:
I dated a guy once whose family had a beautiful derelict farm property in downeast Maine that he stood to inherit - I dated him more for the prospect of that property than from true love, I’m ashamed to admit. I wasn’t terribly craven, just still in love with another young man so I couldn’t get on board.
Anyway they had chickens who ran around the dooryard and in and out of the house at will. No chicken kissing, though. Frankly I’ve never met a chicken I liked that much - but I do kiss my dogs. Only on the furry tops of their noses where no snot resides. Dogs carry a few zoonotic diseases that can infect humans, including one bacteria that behaves like aggressive staph and can kill you or leave you profoundly maimed.

For me, it is far better to grasp the Universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring.

Plus you have this to contend with. It's rarely the dog's breath that stinks.
