Housing chicks that are Vaccinated with non Vaccinated

[CedarCrestFarm]

Have someone who purchased hatching eggs from me and has now decided she can't keep the chicks. They are 4 weeks old. I vaccinate any chick that hatches on our farm and these chicks have not been vaccinated. I would like to take the babies but wondering if there is any danger of having non vaccinated chicks near the chicks that have been vaccinated for Marek's.

Any input would be greatly appreciated!!

having the vaccinated next to the vaccinated is not a problem.. from what I understand there is not a problem with the Marek's vaccine causing 'shedding'.

However... since the chicks have now been in a different place, and exposed to other chickens.... you might be introducing who knows what....

So they will have to be segregated because of that.
