Blackhead disease can be a problem in turkeys, chukar, grouse, quail, partridge, pheasants, and peafowl but rarely in chickens.
Chickens are often the carriers, thus the benefits of segregating birds by species as well as age.
Caused by a protozoan, the symptoms include: increase thirst, decrease appetite, drowsiness, weakness, yellowish-brown, watery, or foamy droppings and the birds may become very thin.
Pale yellow droppins in turkeys is almost always a sign of blackhead.
(OK to eat eggs during treatment with these antibiotics.) |
