One other thing, they told me yesterday, Infectious Bronchitis is caused by the Coronavirus, and can be spread by wild birds, rodents, you could even get it on your clothes at the feed store if someone with infected birds had it on their clothes or shoes and you came in contact with it, and brought it home to your flock. They told me that Infectious Bronchitis is very common, especially the mild strain, it can go through your flock with absolutely NO symptoms other than mis-shaped, or wrinkled eggs, which is the result of damage to the reproductive tract of the chickens. I know that there have been a lot of threads on here about weird eggs, and it is very likely that the chickens laying those odd eggs, have been infected with IB and that is why they lay the wonky eggs. Just so that everyone can be aware of it. I think I will start another thread for the wrinkled egg people.
