I had my GCM dying in just two days.
She manifested wry neck one morning, got worse by the evening, even worse by next morning, and in just a over a day she couldn't open her eyes. She had light green, paste like stool before she died.
She was dead in less than 48 hours after I noticed her symptoms.
I gave her E vitamin, B complex, Selenium and all that stuff for vitamin deficiency meanwhile, but didn't show any improvement.
At the same time I am "treating" another cockerel with "broken" leg, or so I thought for a week now, isolating him in a smaller box to prevent him fro moving excessively.
He, too, instead of improving got the second leg looking like paralyzed.
Now I am very concerned that it was actually Marek's symptom in the cockerel from the very beginning, as well as the GCM hen.
How can it happen if they were vaccinated?
Is it Marek's or something else can have the very same symptoms?
Any suggestions?
PS.
They got organic Scratch and Pack chick starter, Nutrena's NatureWise, as well as a third type of all natural chick starter..
Both chicken form the same flock, same breeder, same age, just different breed.
Very concerned for some of my other hens coming from the same breeder, same or different time..
