With all the rain and cold we have had of late it is no surprise to get someone ill. Although he is not showing many signs of illness, just lack of interest in most things and a little sluggish. Not breeding with a selection of fine hens. I suspect it may be first sings of Mareks? This downhill process in a bird that was otherwise vibrant and well may take as long as a year.I pray that I am totally wrong and he is just not himself today.

On a positive spin, at least I have a backup which is everything a gold buttercup should be bar willow legs. Pictures I will get over the next few weeks as I am on holidays from Friday for three full weeks. Yay.

We hope all goes well and it’s not Mareks, we agree with Jon that much effort should be rewarded.


Good luck, please keep us posted on how he goes


Thanks
P.A :-D

Not good news about the rooster Frank.

Looking forward to your visit. I've warned Jack you might be heading this way soon.

Merry Christmas, Brett.

Is likely I am driving. Better for me as I can "collect" things on the way.

Today, 26/12 I was down to feed the buttercup pen. He is stumbling slightly now for the first time. No other poultry showing any similar signs. So he is moved for slow journey to death. He surely won't get better from here. Anyway, his two sons will be ready to take over in about 6 weeks.
