I don't have much experience to add. My first birds are my only birds, now 29 weeks old. They were bought for $1.75 Cdn each, vaccinated for Marek's. Trained in zoology and ecology, biosecurity is of prime consideration to me, with emphasis on prevention. I was SO lucky to begin with new ground and to have a hubby dedicated to helping me build a coop/run with all the things needed to separate the birds from dangers (closed flock). The only people allowed in there are me and he! So far, so good, and I hope for continued good fortune with these marvellous egg machines. Details in the link below.
Thanks for the thread!
