Thank you, especially for teaching & sharing all of your knowledge. Yes it is a very creepy feeling as they go across your skin. I feel better now that I don't have to worry about my 96 y.o. Dad, my loyal fido & my expert kitty hunters.

I'll take your advice and stop feeding them deserts of corn, bird feed and kitty leftovers. Pellets for everyone. It's time to be a better Daddy. It's true then; I was serving them, cake & ice cream. No wonder they went for it with gusto. I'll see if the baby rooster does better, hopefully...

Is Mareks disease terminal/deadly to the chicken? Is there a chance that the antiviral from the vet may reverse it? I really don't want to cull him. He's a happy Baby Rooster. The other chickens don't eat the pellets. So I was at a loss what to do. Thank you for all your help. :)

My 8 mos old Rooster, both of his legs are becoming stiff. he is still able to flex them , but the normal position is to have them extended. His appetite is very good. His diet is corn, bird seed & left over kitty food as well as the other hens & the Daddy Rooster. One of my red hens had died...
