We will be getting into doing more showing this year and I was wondering what diseases you vaccinates for? We usually vaccinate for marek's disease but that's it. We raise bantam ducks and chickens. Another question I have is what happens if I purchase an older bird that wasn't vaccinated for...
I had 10 gamel quail chicks hatch out 5 days ago, 2 days ago I lost 3, and today I lost 5. I grind the crumbles so they can eat, they drink fine. The temps around 95-97 under the heat lamp. Any idea?

Looking for great quality show birds. Prefer silkies, cochins, and/or game birds. May be interested in other bantams around the chicagoland or NW IN area. May travel up to 2hrs for top show birds.
I have a bantam cochin rooster I just purchased. He had a leg band wrapped tight around his leg we got that off, it started to bleed but I put some quik stop on it to clot the blood. The worse thing is his legs are unbelieveable. They have huge globs of what looks like skin? The one foot is so...
