Marek's

[whispurr]

We have Marek's disease. I have 2 year olds that are doing fine. I have 7 that just started laying, and one roo, those are vaccinated. My question, if I let them make chicks, would they have any immunity to Marek's or will they just die? Thanks!

You can try to hatch from their eggs, but be aware that some will die while others may have acquired immunity. It will show later in the course of egg and chick development, nobody can predict how it will go.

Good luck!
