I'm sorry about your rooster. There is a lot of great info on here, so you can learn how to prevent and treat an illness.
Good Luck
 
Welcome Maransfan 16 from New York State. You've joined a great site for answers. Are you a Marans fan only or do you own some also? Glad you have climbed aboard. Sue

Sorry to hear about your roo. Do as Redsoxs advised and ask in the E&D section.
 
also i went and looked at all the bacterial stuff and i don't know exactly what it means but it pointed to three things. pullorum, ulcerative enteritis, and fowl cholera does anyone know how to treat any of these
 
welcome Kentucky from Los Angeles ...so wonderful that you are taking care of your birds at 15. My daughter is 14 and I have to bribe her with an allowance LOL but she's pretty good at taking care of them. enjoy!
