https://www.vetsurgeon.org/f/clinical-questions/11540/pet-chicken-vaccinations Hi all, I&#39;ll add to the seeming plethora of exotics questions. Should I be recommending pet chickens are vaccinated? If so, with what and at what age? If the vaccine status is unknown (like in a chicken I saw today) would people still vaccinate (onceen-USTelligent Community 10https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/62568?ContentTypeID=1Mon, 30 Apr 2012 12:15:05 GMT146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:6de12ce2-54db-47bc-93b3-85f1b00ca10fMarie Kubiak<p>Mareks at day 1 (certainly prior to moving outside/mixing with adults) by injection for all chicks- Poulvac MD is best as can be stored at fridge temperatures so doesn&#39;t need liquid nitrogen or anything fancy. Not much benefit in vaccinating adults as likely already contacted virus but as you have at least 1000 doses to use in a couple of hours then worth considering.</p> <p>Infectious bronchitis (from day 1 to 14 as spray/eye drop) is also a good idea - exact brand will depend on strains in local area.</p> <p>I tend to recommend people breeding do Mareks and IB in chicks asap, but those buying in a few adults for eggs have missed the window for Mareks vaccination prior to exposure and I recommend IB (&amp; mycoplasma if mixing from differing sources or known problems on site)</p> <p>Marie</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
