Mereks or vit. Deficiency?

[SarahJoy11]

She is about 8 weeks old. She can't walk but is otherwise normal. The legs seem to have gotten worse. She can stand up half way but she shakes and falls when she tries to walk. I thought I did notice enlarged feather follicles which scares me. She just acts so normal I dont understand. Also if it is mereks what do I do with the flock. Are they okay?

You may want to check out the articles on Mareks to see if her symptoms fit.
Also post in fullest detail at "emergencies, diseases, injuries, cures."

I've been told that any survivors of Mareks will be carriers for life. I wouldn't do anything with your flock until you have a firm diagnosis of Mareks.
