different roo this time and different symptoms......need "HELP" ASAP

[Barnyard]

Ok. I have been outside checking the yard. As far as I can see there is nothing like that around my yard that the chickens would have access to...

that is a relief. I have to feel there feeder up everyday so I don't think it is the feed. I will double check all of that though.

Well it is morning and the little man made it through the night...

Although he doesn't seem any better, he doesn't seem any worse either. I have been doing the molasses flush by syringe (he will not drink) I am gonna do this for a few more hours and then start him back on vitamins and electrolytes, unless someone chims in and tells me different....hint-hint......

well i would have hoped someone would reply to you by now. you might try to PM DLUnicorn or CUDA, both of them are quite knowledgeable, maybe one of them will have a bright idea.

Well here is a update...... The roo is doing alote better. He has been eating and drinking on his own and is standing up pretty good.

I go out to the coop this morning to check on the other's and I believe I have another WCBP roo getting sick.......

He was fine yesterday but today he is just laying around. I am beginning to wonder if I have Mareks in this flock of birds? If so what does that mean for the one's in the pen beside them?? I have Silkie's on one side and Cochin's on the other....... Lord I pray that it is not Mareks.
