    Not an Emergency...Marek's in the Flock

    That is true that they can recover, and that they will develop immunity. The rooster might have hatched with curled toes and they just never bothered to help him straighten them out.

    Not an Emergency...Marek's in the Flock

    Quote: Well, you should always quarantine new birds before adding to an existing flock or in your case, kept the two flocks separate, for three weeks to a month. If you have done that, good, but if you haven't, you don't need to panic. You could either cull the sick ones, or try to treat them...

    Not an Emergency...Marek's in the Flock

    Quote: I understand that's a common theory..but Marek's is everywhere, anyway. In the ground and everywhere. Either the bird develops an immunity to it...or they don't

    Not an Emergency...Marek's in the Flock

    I'm sure he has MS, not Marek's. He never has had any paralysis issues, just pain. And now he has pneumonia. We are treating him, but I doubt he will make it. At least he's in the house, where it's warm. He has an odd smell, too, which I don't recognize as being part of Marek's.

    Personally, I think Marek's is going to be around, whether you keep recovered birds, or not. Always has been, always will be, and it's everywhere.

    I wish I knew what to do for her. :/ She is not exactly ill, but she's just not quite right. I think she must have some permanent damage from either the worms, the Marek's, or both.

    Not an Emergency...Marek's in the Flock

    Thank you. She's not vaccinated, no, except in the natural way by having it, and then recovering. She was better today, so I decided not to put her back in the hospital pen. She's pretty weak but she can fly, run, (if she has to), jump to a higher perch, and she's eating and drinking, so I...

    Not an Emergency...Marek's in the Flock

    My pullet Peaches had Marek's, or at least I believe that is what it was.. She almost died, but after a lot of TLC, she made a full recovery and was fine for six months. Then she came down with a severe worm infestation, with Capillary worms, despite our deworming schedule, a couple of months...

    Have you tried Hypericum Perforatum?

    Not an Emergency...Marek's in the Flock

    You know, I think there are so many things that cause look alike symptoms that it is very hard to pin point Mareks specifically...so for that reason I have chosen not to cull my one survivor from what I'm pretty sure was Mareks...we've had 7 cases of very similar symptoms over the past year and...
