Effects of a Water Applied Biopromotor and Feed Applied MOS on the Prevalence of Colibacillosis and Egg Production in Commercial Heavy Breeders

Great thanks to Carlos De Oliveira, Justino Hernandez and Sherry Layton for this interesting presentation. I observed from the presentation, that the farm in question had a historical challenge of colibacillosis, diarrhea and reduced egg production. But with the introduction of a bio-promoter and yeast cell wall [ MOS] in a treated pen, there was a general improvement in health status of the birds and egg production, with reduced mortalities. Now my suggestion is this, while I was a poultry manager years back here in Badagry, Nigeria, we observed the same challenge, we checked the feed ingredients, which were not constant. We checked the water, which was a constant and observed bacterial contamination from water lines and water holding tanks. Flushing and cleaning with appropriate medicament were done with great success. I suggest and advise that poultry caretakers should constantly check water source in order to avert constant enteric challenges.
