Reliable diagnostic tools are essential for maintaining poultry health. The oocyst per gram (OPG) count and qPCR are two useful techniques to assess coccidiosis in chickens.
This innovative technology offers several benefits for poultry producers in the control of coccidiosis in chickens. But what does it take to properly prepare the vaccine solution for in ovo administration?
Coccidiosis is a common parasitic disease that can have a significant impact on poultry health and productivity. Despite its prevalence, many misconceptions exist about the prevention and control of this disease. It’s often thought that caged hens are less likely to get coccidiosis because they don’t have much contact with their droppings. But this is a misunderstanding.
Coccidiosis is a common parasitic disease of chickens caused by protozoans of the genus Eimeria. It is one of the most important diseases of poultry worldwide, causing significant economic losses due to reduced growth, mortality, and costs of treatment.
Effective monitoring and control programs are essential in the daily operations of poultry farms, playing a crucial role in the decision-making process. Globally, qualitative and quantitative diagnosis of coccidiosis methods are employed to determine the presence and level of pressure of avian coccidiosis in breeder, layer, and broiler farms.
Coccidiosis remains a significant challenge for poultry producers, impacting both long- and short-lived birds. While chemoprophylaxis is being more and more contested due to the appearance of resistances and the One Health Approach, the use of vaccination strategies is becoming an increasing trend.
Avian coccidiosis in chickens is still considered as one of the main diseases in poultry production, causing significant health problems and great economic losses, either in its clinical or subclinical form. In this article, we will briefly review the main features of the disease: etiologic agent, the types of coccidiosis in poultry, pathogenesis, prevention and control.
Over the last few years, the management of male breeders has acquired increased importance. Despite representing 10-12% of the farm population, males account for 50% of the fertility. Lighting, bodyweight and nutrition have been demonstrated to have a key impact on male fertility, but other challenges that represent a hazard to the bird’s health may also have an impact on this performance parameter. In this blog, we will be looking at an article1 about the effects of coccidiosis on Japanese quail performance rates.
A new coccidiosis vaccine for chickens has been launched in the market, being developed specifically developed for in-ovo administration, as indicated in the Part 1
