If your going to get new chicks, according to the link I found...

You may want to move the chicken coop/run
other wise there is a good chance of recontamination.
It appears from this article that it is very difficlut to remove from the ground.
I would also recomend getting cicks that have been vaccinated for Mereks that way you have less chance of reinfection.
from everything I have read on Mereks its a Herpes type virus and no none cure.

I didnt get the news letter this month , maybe because I forgot to update the membership last month?
I will getit updated sunday,
so untill then can someone send me a copy.

I didn't get the newsletter this month either. I joined last month like Dave did and he got one.

Maybe they haven't sent it to everyone yet? Or the PO is slow?
