Teach, have you gotten the final results? I just put down two of mine and researching how to get a necropsy. I too am in south central IN but can't stomach spending that much.
Yes, it was NOT marek's! I didn't mention it in my original post, but around that same time I had a little hen appear to go blind...her pupils were fixed dialated, and I could wave my hand in front of her face w/no reaction. That was another reason I was so paranoid that it was marek's... I did NOT have her tested. If my little roo had tested positive, we would have simply put her down ourselves. You might call them to see if they can determine marek's through a blood test....much cheaper. Of course you'd have to draw blood, which I don't know how to do... I balked at the price, and still find it ridiculous, but it was well worth the feeling of relief KNOWING that I don't have marek's in my flock... Good luck with your decision AND results!
