That is not how to "tag" people if you are actually wanting them to respond.

You must use the @ symbol in front of the name.

Took her to vet for necropsy results came back as lymphoma.

Can you post a copy of the necropsy results so we can read them?

Black out or block any personal information (your name/address/etc.) before posting it.

Thank you.

She is isolated inside. Won't eat or drink much has yellow runny poop. Keeps doing neck movements upwards like she's having a crop issue but crop feels empty. She won't open her eyes but in the last 2 days she's opened 1 halfway.

Can you look over the necropsy again? Reason being, lymphoma is tumors generally caused by a disease or ailment. There must've been something more on there.

Pretty sure Mareks causes lymphomas and paralysis both

No worries! I’ll make sure to use that next time. I didn’t realize that was the preferred format.

Is her crop emptying overnight? Have you checked?

If the crop is not emptying, address that symptom.

That is the Only Format/Way that will tag another member.

For the last 2 months we've had problems. Let me explain. Everyone was fine and the day after Christmas we went out in the morning and his prize chicken he had taken to the fair had passed away on the coop floor.

This has me suspecting that the prize chicken might have contracted some kind of illness/virus while at the fair, brought it back home and thus has spread it to the others of your flock.

This happens quite often if the birds shown at fairs etc. are not properly quarantined after being shown at fairs or exhibitions.

Nowadays here in Germany breeders often prefer to sell their birds immediately after shows/exhibitions and not take them home as bringing them back home has already eradicated some breeders' entire stock in the past.

I am sorry your son is losing his birds.

I do think the necropsy report being posted may be helpful. You mentioned that chicken being diagnosed with lymphoma. Another one died with paralyzed legs. Those two things might be signs of Mareks. I hope not though. Attending chicken shows is very risky because you have hundreds of people tracking in germs and touching cages that could spread almost anything. Then you could bring in a new disease.
