This thread is great! I want to add my two cents as well! These little micro bugs are all over my poor sick chicken, and all over me, too! Yetch!! I’m going to spray everything down with Elector PSP, $20 for a one flock dose from the Chicken Chick 👍 This stuff is amazing on mites, so I am hopeful!!
I wanted to tell you that it is NOT your fault, at all!! My chickens are well-cared for too, and the Marek’s diagnoses feels like a slap in the face. There is no way to know exactly how the virus got into your obviously well cared for birds, but it doesn’t matter. How/when/where questions are...
