Hi, I am almost dreading asking this question as looked up marek's in great detail but thought it wouldn't hurt to see if anyone has any other suggestions advice.
My little poppy was just seemingly stuck down the side of a wood pile, head first. Nothing appeared to fall, its just like she walked in and got stuck. He first wondered if she was laying an egg as is about ready to start laying (our other 2 are). My husband picked her up but when he put her down she was walking like she was drunk. Her left foot crossed her right and her right crossed her left. We examined her but couldn't see anything so have put her alone in the coop for a bit.
They are fed chick feed and have just started laying pellets and have pasta, bread, sweetcorn regularly as treats. I am keeping their coop as clean as I can as they were sleeping in the nesting boxes but haven't actually disinfected when cleaning.
What about egg bound if it isn't early mareks, would that cause wobbliness in legs. She is small but nicely podgy and still has a good appetite. She is such a sweet girl, and tries to communicate more than the rest, just hoping nothing serious.
