    Where can I have a necropsy done for Mareks? UPDATE

    Quote: Thank you for understanding. I have orders for Marek's, Pox, Newcastle vaccines, and Oxine on the way. Sigh...I have chicks hatching on Monday.

    Hen can't keep her balance?

    Everytime I read about balance I think about Marek's. Only because my flock is experiencing a problem with balance at this very moment. Yesterday, I took three of my most affected hens to the state lab for necropies. Maybe I am being paranoid. I posted yesterday and today. Whatever is going on...

    Need advice ASAP on my bare back pullet(s)!

    Alcohol removes the BluKote, it even removed the stains from my Crocs! I'd apply Hot Pick If the hen's skin isn't red, inflammed or broken. Also, as winter approaches try coating their backs with petroleum jelly. It creates a moisture barrier that locks out wind and cold, and it prevents chapping.

    Where can I have a necropsy done for Mareks? UPDATE

    Yesterday morning, I took three hens to the Virginia Dept of Agriculture and Consumer Services and had them euthanized in order for the Dr. to perform necropsies on each of them. They were in different stages of what I suspect is Marek's. VDACS called later yesterday afternoon with the...

    Where can I have a necropsy done for Mareks? UPDATE

    Although, I am in denial, I had a hen die recently that had symptoms resemble those of Mareks. I had another hen exhibit the same symptoms. So, I am prepared for her death. Does anyone know where I can have a necropsy done in the SW VA, or VA in general? I had researched VA tech and couldn't...

    Why are YOU on BYC forums?

    I visit BYC for advice and feedback. The forum is becoming addicting and I will have to control myself. I'm browsing and actually enjoying reading all the threads.

    power lines, magnetic field and your health

    My friend lives near some and often we can hear a buzzing sound. I wonder if it's harmful? Has anyone experienced this?

    rats, ammonia, filth...DISGUSTING!

    I'm amazed the chickens weren't suffering from respiratory ailments. I wonder how is that avoided?

    rats, ammonia, filth...DISGUSTING!

    Quote: I don't know if the person is NPIP. They don't have a website, and the breeders list doesn't reveal it. Hmmm, that's something to think about. If the person is showing they would have to have their birds tested.

    rats, ammonia, filth...DISGUSTING!

    I visited a champion breeder last week to purchase chicks. This person has won countless awards and has great respect and reputation throughout the breeders club and nation. I was appalled and disgusted at the living conditions of the fowl this person housed. While walking to one of the houses...

    Humidity caused a turned toe...can I still breed him?

    I had the humidity too high in the incubator and the chick was hatched with a turned toe. If I breed this rooster can this be passed on? It isn't considered a genetic defect is it? I'm sorry if this is a stupid question, but I just couldn't find any information anywhere and everyone here knows...
