    Is it Marek's??

    I have lost a total of 3 pullets to Marek's. I have a similar story to yours, when I found one of my Partridge Plymouth Rocks down in the coop with no control of her legs. She was alert and otherwise active, so I fed her a diet of greek yogurt mixed with multivitamins and crumbles. I made...

    Is it Marek's??

    New to raising chickens...sort of

    Thank you redsox! I would like to get more chickens but I am reluctant to introduce new ones to my remaining flock until I know for certain I don't have some kind of chicken epidemic going on since 2 became ill in the same week. The next ones I get will come from a different source though.
