I recently lost a Cornish cross to Rales, and was wondering if it is contagious? I put it ( when it was alive)in the cage with 2 of my cuckoo Maran chicks, which are acting fine. It died the same night I put it in with the Marans:confused:
 
No signs whatsoever, they are acting fine. They are eating, drinking, and pooping just fine.
Sounds good!

I would still keep an eye on them for a few days more, but if it's been this long with not showing any symptoms - I'd say they are likely fine.

The bird you lost was a CX and sometimes they are not very hardy. Having rales may have just been a symptom of actively dying and not respiratory illness.
