Hey y'all! I live in Ga and have had chickens for a year and a half. Recently have had 4 chickens with Marecks Disease and am looking for ways to help my flock. I love my chickens and don't want to lose the whole flock. Thanks y'all.

Please put "Mareks disease" in the search box, a ton of information should come up. Birds that survive Marecks will be carriers for life.
 
Hello :frow Welcome to BYC and Happy Holidays! Sorry about the problems you are having with your flock. There are several articles on Mareks in the BYC Learning Center, the compilation one is https://www.backyardchickens.com/a/mareks-disease-fact-site Like drumstick diva said there are a ton of threads if you want to do a search on it, ie long thread with a similar situation https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/741957/not-an-emergency-mareks-in-the-flock You might also want to go ahead and start a thread of your own in the Emergencies/Disease forum https://www.backyardchickens.com/f/10/emergencies-diseases-injuries-and-cures
 
Welcome to BYC. Hopefully the Mareks has run its course and the rest will be survivors. Add only vaccinated birds to your flock.
 
Thank you all very much. We culled her this morning just to be sure she didn't contaminate more chickens than already have been. Thank u for the links as well. Lots of useful info.
