3 What is a disease Any condition that results in deviation from normal function
4 How do diseases occur? AGENT BACTERIA OR VIRUS Carrier ENVIRONMENT HOST
5 ETIOLOGY Infectious Agents Bacteria Viruses Parasites Fungi Non-infectious agents Chemical Physical Lack or excess of certain vitamins and minerals Toxins
6 General Signs of Disease Poor appetite Huddling Depression Poor uniformity Ruffled feathers Coughing, sneezing, Oculo-nasal discharge, difficult breathing Bloody or wet litter Increased mortality Colour change (comb & wattle)
7 Effects of Disease Decreased reproduction Decreased productivity Increased mortality Decreased cash-flow (PROFIT) Market loss Flock loss
8 Marek's Disease Paralysis of legs, wings, neck Enlargement of visceral organs like liver spleen etc. Tumour of visceral organs
9 Marek's Disease
10 Prevention and control Marek's disease Prophylactic vaccination At the age of 2 nd or 3 rd day Marek's vaccine (bivalent strain) subcutaneous
11 Infectious Laryngotracheitis ILT Difficultly in respiration Blood in trachea
12 Prevention and control ILT Prophylactic vaccination 1 st vaccine 42 nd day- eye drop 2 nd vaccine - 84 th day eye drop
13 Infectious Bronchitis (IB) Respiratory problems Increasing number of shell less eggs Increasing broken eggs Miss- shaped eggs
14 Prevention and control Prophylactic Vaccination 5 th day IB + Lasota oral or eye drop 30 th day IB + Lasota (double dose)- drinking water 98 th day IB (H120) double dose in drinking water In laying birds vaccination of IB (H120) double dose through drinking water in every 2 months interval
15 FOWL POX Development of nodular proliferative Skin lesions on the featherless parts of the body Plug formation in opening of trachea
16 CLINICAL SIGNS Fowl Pox Appearance of nodular lesions Combs Wattles Eyelids other unfeathered areas of the body.
17 PREVENTION AND CONTROL Fowl Pox Prophylactic vaccination 1 st Fowl pox vaccine 63 rd day 2 nd dose 119 th day
18 VVND Two types High pathogenic Low pathogenic Respiratory problem Comb - black in color Drop in egg production Damaged ovary High mortality
19 VVND
20 Prevention and control VVND Maintain biosecurity Prophylactic vaccination 5 th day ND+VVND subcutaneous 56 th day- VVND (special)- subcutaneous 126 th day - VVND (special)- subcutaneous
21 RANIKHET DISEASE New castle disease Respiratory signs Often associated with nervous and digestive disorders High mortality.
22 ND/RD Increased respiration Weakness Torticolis Paralysis of legs Proventricular hemorrhages
23 Prevention and control Prophylactic vaccination Lentogenic strain (F or B1) - day old chicks eye or nasal drop 5 th day IB + Lasota oral or eye drop 30 th day IB + Lasota (double dose)- drinking water Mesogenic strain (R2B)- 70 th day of age 133 rd day ND killed - subcutaneous In laying birds vaccination of lasota or ND clone vaccine through drinking water in every 2 months interval ( every month in summer)
24 INFECTIOUS CORYZA FOWL CORYZA Serous to mucoid nasal discharges with foul smelling Facial edema Conjunctivitis Swollen wattles
25 Prevention and control FOWL CORYZA Prophylactic vaccination First Coryza vaccine- 38 th day- subcutaneous Second vaccine 80 th day subcutaneous
26 Mycoplasma (CRD) Respiratory problems Mucous in trachea Cloudy airsacs Cake formation in abdominal cavity
27 CRD
28 Gangrenous Dermatitis Blood below the feathers Generally grower birds
29 GIZZAED ERROSION Blood In gizzard
30 CHICKEN INFECTIOUS ANEMIA Ruffled feathers Loss of body weight
31 BACILLARY WHITE DIARRHOEA PULLORUM DISEASE Weakness Loss of appetite Chalky white diarrhoea Stained greenish brown(sometimes) in and around vent
32 Coccidiosis More in deep litter system Bloody diarrhoea (blood in feces) Weight loss Huddling Enteritis Mortality in young
33 Fatty liver syndrome Due to high energy diet.
34 Sources of Pathogens 1. Introduction of diseased or carrier animals 2. Visitors 3. Introduction of contaminated materials 4. Inappropriate disposal of carcasses 5. Contaminated water supplies 6. Vehicles 7. Wildlife, rodents, wild birds, insects, pets 8. Air-borne transmission 9. Vertical transmission
35 Biosecurity Practices 1. Control exposure to diseased or carrier animals 2. Control visitor access 3. Ensure that fomites (objects) are clean 4. Dispose of carcasses appropriately 5. Check feed and water contamination 6. Control exposure to insects 7. Address vertical transmission 8. Sanitation and Disinfection
36 Sanitation and Disinfection Keep farm clean Boot bath (disinfectant) Boots for on farm only Spray car/truck tires Clean floor mats Wash all incoming equipment Best to not borrow equipment
