Where they vaccinated for Marek's disease?
How old was the one that you euthanized and the one now experiencing the same symptoms?

not sure about marecks i was told they had had all there shots, i got both at the same time around two years ago, these are hyline chooks
 
both the same age around 2 to two and a half years old, i cant see anything wrong with the second one either, as she was my only one i went and bought a couple more for company ,she was fine when i got back but when i was extending the run she also started to limp, its morning now and still dark so i will check on her in a cpl hours when its light, but having read that this may just be a strain or something not serious i will leaver her awhile before i make any drastic decision
