I was doing a bit of reading up on chooky problems (as you do

) when I came across this site (turn your sound up):

http://www.shagbarkbantams.com/page15.htm

Don't read the article it might give you the heebie jeebies, but the music is delightful - stereo too

One question Aunt Sally am i reading this correctly? short extract right from the end of the article.
"There is no known treatment for Egg Drop Syndrome. Some breeders simply live with the results of EDS 76 in their flock. Hens will appear healthy and happy whether they produce good eggs or not. Ducks that are infected and are hosts of EDS 76 show almost no signs of it and their eggs are usually good. This makes it even more difficult to identify the ducks or geese that are carriers.

Egg Drop Syndrome can be quite frustrating to the serious breeder. If it becomes a real problem for your breeding program, then vaccination is always an option." are the two highlighted passages contradicting them selves?

Oh and as per-usual I now think one of my girls has got it!!!!!!!!!!

You were supposed to be listening to the lovely music Roughlee !

There is no contradiction there. The vaccination is not a treatment it is a preventative i.e. stops the birds developing the disease, once the bird has the disease it is not treatable !
