From Homerange Poultry Farm BE WARY OF BUSINESSMEN SELLING UNVACCINATED DAY OLD CHICKS (MAREKS DISEASE VACCINE): Farmers who are always seeking the improved kienyeji chicken or any other chicks for that matter need to be very wary because businessmen out there are selling unvaccinated day old chicks to unsuspecting / vulnerable farmers as these businessmen do not have the capacity to conduct the crucial MAREKS DISEASE VACCINE that is crucial to be done on day 1 when the chicks hatch. Unfortunately this mareks disease vaccine requires it be done at the hatchery and requires some level of expertise to administer it. The vaccine is also not easily accessible to small scale hatchers as its not easily available in the market and also its sold in large dosages and requires specialized automatic syringes to administer on the chicks. Small scale hatchers unfortunately do not have the capacity thus to administer this crucial vaccine hence by acquiring your chicks from such sources put you at risk of your chicken contracting this dangerous MAREKS DISEASE which affect chicken when they are mature and ready for the market. You can imagine how painful it is to lose chicken that you have spent so much money to rear to a disease which should have been vaccinated against at the hatchery. We thus recommend to farmers to acquire their chicks from reliable sources / hatcheries which they are well aware of their practices and have assurance that their chicks have been vaccinated against Mareks disease.
