Great! Good for you. This is in Belgium?

Yup. Husband's grandfather, God rest his soul, passed away in July. I think he'd be happy that his grandsons and their families live on the property now.

So.... My best Chantecler pullet is down sick with I don't know what.
Her balance seems off, nothing other than that.
Few days ago she was really lame on the off leg, but now it's not so much lame as unbalanced.

I know, I know, I've thought about Marek's. I'm just looking for other things that could cause unsteadiness. Anyone happen to remember something from their travels around BYC?

I wish I could help, but if it's not Marek's then I'm stumped. Good luck Banti <3

Do chickens have anything like eustacean (sp.) tubes in the inner ear, like humans?

Chicken ears are weird. Birds in general are odd creatures.
