I just found out the hens I bought were vaccinated with mareks vaccine and I think my rooster is sick now

The mareks vaccine has nothing to do with his current illness. Changing homes is a stressful time for birds and that can make it so they are more vulnerable to either something they already had that was dormant or something new that is on your property that your flock is resistant to. Does he have any white gunk in his throat?

No gunk at throat, I deep cleaned and bleached the coop but could have been something in the run, but haven’t had any sick birds in a long time. I always deworm and give corid any time I get new birds I’ve got chicken Gatorade I make in the coop. I’m just hoping he makes it , he’s acting fine besides the rattling and gulping air and bad poop , I watched him drink and eat, so idk if it’s the move mixed with how hot it is.

Some wet chicken feed and scrambled egg bits might help his poops to become more normal. Hopefully he will get along okay tonight. Let us know how he is doing tomorrow.

I’ve got him wet food , with water and molasses and electrolytes in his water and he was gobbling it up , so fingers crossed! I’ll let yall know in the morning!
