I have a now closed flock of 7 with a silkie chick that hatched 2 weeks ago. They are now all currently battling a respiratory infection (we think MG) so we wont be getting any new birds. We are located in southwestern Ontario, cold winters and warm summers but we have pretty big predatory bug...
I am new to raising chickens and ducks I was wondering about vaccinations and which are best for my flock. I currently have Easter eggers and silkie chickens
My parents have finally said that, when avain flu in the UK dies down, I might be able to incubate my own eggs!:celebrate
However, I know that in the UK you are meant to get poultry vaccinated. Does anyone know how much this costs and where (in Devon, UK), you can get them...
I purchased some chicks from stock and field who get their chicks from townline hatchery. The guy at the store said they’re vaccinated. I don’t know if I believe him, from what I’ve seen most stores sell unvaccinated chicks. Does anyone know for sure?
Thanks!
I have 10 chicken but all vaccination seem to come in 1000 dose. Seems like a waste. I keep a clean coop and don't have a lot of spare cash. Do I really need to vaccinate my chickens for marek's disease. I have silkies and a few amaraucana.
I do not know if I need to put this in a different forum or what but I am thinking about ordering some bantam chicks through a hatchery online next spring.
I saw they can't vaccinate against marek's disease. Is there a reason they can't? Can I buy the vaccinations online and vaccinate the...
I just had 2 chicks hatch yesterday, we have them on medicated chick feed with broody silkie/polish mama taking care of them (she hatched the big chicken eggs). There are still eggs under the other broody hen that could also hatch at any time. How important is giving the Marek's vaccine right...
So, you may have seen my post before where I explain how my flock inherited MG from a “hatchery” that sold me sick chickens. So far I have gotten the disease under control but symptoms keep popping up in another chicken every time one beats it. I have a few questions on how to proceed from here...
I’m from the UK and was wondering what vaccinations people recommend for day old chicks which is available over here.
We hatched chicks a few times but they are only a hobby and we didn’t vaccinate but this year we were thinking to.
Any help would be brilliant
Hi there,
I adopted a blue laced red wyandotte who turned out to be very sick with something. Rattle in the chest, very snotty, sneezing and sniffling. I had her in quarantine for weeks, and she finally recovered. As soon as I stuck her in the yard, the other two hens got sick but to a much...
Hi, I’m just thinking about when the rota virus vaccine comes out I will begin to vaccinate all my pigeons also for PMV and the others. Are year old birds to old to vaccinate? And how many different types of vaccinations will they need? Also how many weeks apart? Thanks
Hi!
I am sure this has been asking a bunch of times but I am attempting to hatch about 50 eggs right now. Do I need to vaccinate them and if I do, how do I go about getting medication?
Thank you!
Hi! I would like to vaccinate my chickens for Coryza, but cant seem to find a site, except for one, that sells it. The only one I found was $72 plus $3 handling. Is there any other site that seems more legit or cheaper? I have 9 chicks
If i were to order baby chicks from a hatcheries (which is probably going to happen cause I cant find local breeders) they offer a vaccine service for Mareks... Should I Vaccinate them?
