The Great Big Giant Marek's Disease FAQ

Very comprehensive!
Thank you so much for making this info available. We are all better off for it.
Excellent resource guide covering subtopics often ignored in the "What is Marek's?" kind of essay. Because she advises not to cull birds with Marek's, I also (having two survivors in my flock) would love an added subtopic about supporting survivors. For instance, I modified my chicken ramp for better traction... to help the again-active birds with their balance & leg coordination issues.
I am lucky to have not experienced Marek’s in any of my flocks, I appreciate the details and information. Definitely recommend to others.

Amazing amount of information and very well put together! Thank you for writing this article and providing so many resources and additional links.
Honestly, between how comprehensive this is and the heavy use of citations I'm surprised this article has so few ratings. It should be one of the best on the website.
Incredibly detailed and informative article! Thank you for doing the research for us!
Thank you. Very informative.

The best source for Mareks information on BYC!
Thank you for taking the time to write this article. It was incredibly helpful as I'm presently questioning the symptoms in one of my pullets.

It's absurd how thorough this article with the references and links to other info, products and articles about diseases and illnesses.

This is a must read!
I came upon this article a couple of years ago and kept it on my watch list in case it was ever needed. This is actually one of the best articles I've read on BYC.

It's an incredible source of information with a thorough explanation of symptoms and the disease itself. I like the question and answer format as well. All of my immediate questions were answered. Very well researched, thank you for the help.
Thanks for taking the time to write this!
My chicks sadly all passed away from mareks disease and I really want to get more Chickens but am very apprehensive about it because the virus could spread.

It is great to have all this information in one place. I think Mareks is the most confusing thing chicken keepers have to deal with. Thank you
A true plethora of knowledge. Whether or not you have ever dealt with Marek's, this is something all chicken keepers should read.
