A farmer raised 1000 Sanhuang chickens, and at 35 days of age, 6 suddenly died. That day, the feed intake of this flock of Sanhuang chickens dropped, and after the disease onset, a small number of chickens in the flock showed slight bloody droppings. Over the following 10 days, bloody droppings and pale yellow or light green droppings increased, and the number of deaths rose. Apart from emaciation, the chickens were still in fair spirits. Coccidiostats were given continuously for 3 days to treat cecal coccidiosis, but the effect was not obvious.

1. Necropsy:

The livers of the dead chickens had characteristic features, slightly enlarged, with round or irregular, slightly sunken ulcer foci on the surface and a special shape. The ceca were thick and enlarged, and the contents had a caseous necrotic intestinal core. Based on clinical experience, the diagnosis was chicken cecal coccidiosis.

2. Treatment process:

1. Metronidazole was prepared as a 0.05% aqueous solution for drinking water, while VK was supplemented, used continuously for 5 days. The above symptoms were brought under control, and there were no deaths.

3. Summary: In recent years, among free-range farmers, this disease has occurred sporadically, and because farmers do not pay much attention to it, the economic losses have been relatively serious, @#@230@#@ and enthusiasm has declined. I offer three suggestions regarding this phenomenon.

1. During the rearing of Sanhuang chickens, strengthen cleaning and sanitation management, do routine disinfection well, and at the same time regularly use deworming drugs such as levamisole to expel other nematodes and parasitic diseases.

2. During the rearing of Sanhuang chickens, use raised-net rearing or cage rearing, frequently clean the chicken manure and compost more

3. Treat disease early. Qingdao Animal Husbandry
