well when D a Neighbor bought eggs from R another chicken person who has MG and treats he also sent D some chicken for his freezer .

D Spent 3 weeks in the hospital with Gallicepticum the doctors couldn't tell him where he got it he a week prior was taking care of R Chickens don is now hating chickens after i confronted R about the Disease don showed me his paper work and we looked into it as well

So coincidence ? I think not since i do not believe in them anyway

R is allegidly a reputable breeder for my old breed that is why i didnt give up and kept having my chickens tested and the Lab work
when i found out it was MG sorry i about lost it all my birds are dead the coop burned down the yard burnt and i even had to kill chicks ,

so i do believe it can be transferred since D is only in his 30s And on our police force had just Passed Prior his Health Exams to go down so quick, Names being with held to Protect D

I think my eyes deceived me. Looks like there were spots I hadn't noticed before when I put them on lock down I noticed. So, I'm still waiting (patiently???) for them to hatch. LOL.
 
I was skimming all the stuff about mg first there is NO CURE NO TREATMENT FOR PREVTION. culling is the cure and that would be the whole flock. I think you also have to leave the land dormant for some time. most states if they know your flock is infected will insist you cull the whole flock. they take it VERY SERIOUS.

second that mg you found is a human thing not a chicken then. VERY FEW THINGS CAN CROSS SPECIES.

You can PM me if you want but that is about all I know. have not made a study of these kinds of things sorry.
 
oh yeah....if I had had a chick in my flock with MG......I WOULD CULL EVERY BIRD THAT CHICK CAME IN CONTACT WITH. you could have even passed it to other birds after handling that chick.

I have read several horror stories about it. one poor person has had to cull his flock 3 times so far! NPIP usually dose not test for it so that is no help.

I am not here to argue. Interesting reading.

There are certainly mycoplasmas that humans have trouble with. Mycoplasma pneumoniae causes problems with the immuno-compromised

The one full length article talked of manipulation of cultured (in a lab) human skin cells to be manipulated to take up MG, It goes on to say: "Although the ability of internalized M. gallisepticum to multiply within the host cell remains to be convincingly demonstrated................Whether M. gallisepticum host cell invasion also occurs in vivo and whether this capability provides the organism indeed with a means to translocate across the respiratory epithelium and successfully colonize its host remain to be elucidated."

from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mycoplasma

Mycoplasma refers to a genus of bacteria that lack a cell wall.[1] Without a cell wall, they are unaffected by many common antibiotics such as penicillin or other beta-lactam antibiotics that target cell wall synthesis. They can be parasitic or saprotrophic. Several species are pathogenic in humans, including M. pneumoniae, which is an important cause of atypical pneumonia and other respiratory disorders, and M. genitalium, which is believed to be involved in pelvic inflammatory diseases. Mycoplasma are the smallest living cells yet discovered[citation needed], can survive without oxygen and are typically about 0.1 µm in diameter.

I recommend you read the entire page and learn from it.
