Mareks? Help? *Video added* - Page 2

You would need to contact your local government extension office and find out where to have one done.  They would be able to help you.  A mile is a long way...is it downwind?

Please keep us posted. 

Poor girl, she doesn't look happy at all.  I would bring her inside where she can feel safe.  The others may take notice of her being different and try and peck her to death...I found this out the hard way! 

That look and stance really looks like a Marek's bird to me...but, the rest doesn't quite fit.  The dropping wings, curled feet...all fit Marek's.

Marek's can travel on the wind...I really would try and find out why all the others birds were gotten rid of. 

I really would try and have that necropsy done.  I just don't like the looks of it :(

Ok, since you want to do your best for her..here's what I would recommend.  She is an older hen and maybe this will boost her enough to fight off whatever it is...

.5mls poly vi sol, without iron, daily

400 ius vitamin E twice daily.

Up her protein with scrambled egg, mealworms, chicken livers..whatever is handy with lots of protein.

Keep her cool and comfortable.  I make a mash with flock raiser, yogurt, applesauce (or some kind of veggie/fruit baby food), and vitamins...they love it and it provides them with a good nutrient rich food. 

I am hoping and praying that it isn't Marek's.  The age alone and the fact that no other birds have come into your flock makes it almost impossible to be Marek's...unless the farm down the street was closed due to Marek's..and the wind was blowing just right. 

Keep us posted...I want to hear how she does.

How is her weight?  I can't believe that I forgot to ask.  Does she still lay eggs?

I'm trying to narrow down the cause of this.  She has stopped laying...that is another indicator of Marek's...it can also be an indicator of age, internal laying or EYP.  Would you mind PMing speckledhen and asking her opinion.  She has a lot of experience with reproductive problems in chickens and would be a great help in trying to narrow down the cause of your hen's problems.
