Unfortunately this hen did not make it. I am sure the Marek's got her. I thought maybe I was wrong but s couple days later she was dying. Surprised it took this long to kill her. She was 9 mos old and vaccinated. I will keep a watch out for the rest.

Last year I lost almost my entire flock to Marek's (nercropy confirmed) So I vaccinated everything and hatched myself and kept them indoors or in the garage for 6 weeks plus. Everyone has been fine 9 mos later. However my amerucana hen I found stuck last week under a ladder and ever since seems...
