    Mycoplasma and MG-BAC

    I am sending in a test for MG but the symptoms are sneezing, light snot and sometimes bubbles in the eye. I’ve been treating with Tylan 50 or Tiaguard. My dad also raises his chickens and they show the same symptoms but worse since he doesn’t care to treat it consistently or as needed. His coop...

    Chicken vaccinations?

    My parents have finally said that, when avain flu in the UK dies down, I might be able to incubate my own eggs!:celebrate However, I know that in the UK you are meant to get poultry vaccinated. Does anyone know how much this costs and where (in Devon, UK), you can get them...

    Hi all! Could use some advice.

    Hi everyone! We began our chicken journey in April of this year. We started with 10 Tractor Supply chicks. We had a stray dog issue and lost nine of our chickens. We replenished our flock with local chicks and lost one to a hawk attack, and in the last three weeks we have lost four due to...

    Marek’s Vaccination

    I’m trying to understand the way the Mareks vaccination works. I have gotten chicks from a hatchery that have been vaccinated for it but I have just been told it is a live virus and has exposed all my other chickens to it. Does this mean all my other chickens that haven’t been vaccinated might...

    Marek's vaccine?

    I just had 2 chicks hatch yesterday, we have them on medicated chick feed with broody silkie/polish mama taking care of them (she hatched the big chicken eggs). There are still eggs under the other broody hen that could also hatch at any time. How important is giving the Marek's vaccine right...

    Mycoplasma gallisepticum (MG) experts needed

    So, you may have seen my post before where I explain how my flock inherited MG from a “hatchery” that sold me sick chickens. So far I have gotten the disease under control but symptoms keep popping up in another chicken every time one beats it. I have a few questions on how to proceed from here...

    Broody Hatched Chick Vaccinations

    I have my first broody clutch scheduled to hatch this Friday, I guess. Friday evening will be Day 21. My question (really worry) is about vaccinating the chicks. I know that hatcheries vaccinate “day old” chicks for Mareks. I have four eggs under her and would guess it could possibly take them...

    Medicating

    I may have messed up. I hatched 8 chicks successfully and all seem healthy but I’m just now finding out about medicating them. What I read had them on a schedule with one vaccination at a few days old etc. My chicks are 8 weeks old; is it too late? I prefer putting medication in the water...

    Merrecks vaccine in bantams/older chicks

    I have recently been told by my chick supplier that they do not vaccinate bantams, as it is too dangerous. The employee had recommended vaccinating them myself at 1 week of age, though everything that I am finding on the net indicated that the vaccine absolutely has to be givin within the first...

    Lone Chick-A little help

    Hey lovelies :frow, I have a lone chick I hatched myself recently :jumpy (we sort of rescued her, she almost became our dinner as the neighbors gave us the egg to try; they thought the egg was infertile, but it turns out it wasn't.lol) and I have a mirror in with her, but I don't want her to be...

    Vaccinating Chicks

    Hi! I would like to vaccinate my chickens for Coryza, but cant seem to find a site, except for one, that sells it. The only one I found was $72 plus $3 handling. Is there any other site that seems more legit or cheaper? I have 9 chicks
