Dumb questions :-)

I will say I am chicken dumb lol. I have had birds before and they did fine until a.critter whiped em out. This time I want to be smarter. I beefed up my pin and was needing to know if I need to give my.chickens any vacinations? I bought 2 grown cin. Queen hens and several small birds that I think are around 2 months old. One of them lost all balance yesterday and died she was unable to stand and began turning her head I wasnt sure if my rooster had hurt her or if she was sick. I seperated her. I do not know if they had any type of meds before. Thank u

Sounds like mareks disease. Have a look at some photos and articles about it to see if this is what it was, it can be quite infectious but if yourother chickens are not showing signs you might be lucky.

Thank you so much. Is there anything I can do to prevent the others from getting ill?

If this is the case how long before the others show symptoms I have been reading and this seems like an awful thing..
