In this deep-dive episode of the Poultry Nerds Podcast, we're joined once again by our resident poultry veterinarian, Dr. Morishita, to tackle one of the most misunderstood and hotly debated topics in the poultry world—Marek’s Disease.

Plus, we get answers to your biggest questions:
- Can vaccinated birds spread the virus?
- Is turkey dander protective?
- Do herbal remedies work?
- How can you safely necropsy your own birds?
- Can you test for Marek’s in a live bird?
