I don't know about the wild birds but mine got it from somewhere....and, to the best of my knowledge no one else that I know has had problems. We live downwind from several farms and it is very windy. I won't discount anything. I was more thinking that infected feathers could be blown in the wind from nearby farms. I wish there was more research on this...the problem is real and getting worse and it isn't in just a section of the country, it is widespread. I'm just so frustrated! I've lost all my polish, my original silkies and all but one of my OEGBs...I'm just tired and disheartened...
Leadwolf1, I just wonder if a wild bird can pick up and carry enough of a concentration of virus to infect a chicken.
There's just so little written on scientific experiment with on Marek's. I think we find more reading about people's experiences here.
