Undigested food in poop and won't use legs...???

Don’t you have to order like a bunch though when you order chicks? We can really only handle 3-5 more chickens at most.

No...I have ordered as few as 6 from them in the past.

If I were you I would wait a while...a good few months before adding any new birds to your flock. I think it would be wise to wait and see if any other birds get ill and if one does I would for sure send it for a necropsy to know for sure if you have disease in your flock.


It may be best to start from scratch so to speak.

I am one that would not want to constantly be having to nurse sick ones and be having to deal with birds dying all the time. I would rather just start over.

You may think differently...I'm just sharing my opinion.
Take no offense please.

Yeah, we won’t be adding any new ones until next spring at least. Definitely want to try to boost the immunity of our remaining 10 and see how they fare through the rest of the year.

Hopefully everything stays event free for a long time.
I really hope this was just a freak accident type thing.
I wouldn't wish Marek's on my worst enemy.
