The control of coccidiosis in poultry farms
Forum: Coccidiosis in poultry farms
I am a doctor in Pakistan related to poultry feed and I mostly check poultry farms. I have been facing coccidiosis problem from 4 to 5 months in the field. There is mostly litter dry and climate in pakistan is mostly dry. But my poultry farmers face the coccidiosis problem in three or four times during 42 days of flock. This causes great economic losses to them. Mostly I use sulfaquinoxaline or toltrazuril salt in water and clopidol in feed to control and treat coccidiosis but sometimes coccidiosis attack is sever and no medicine works. I am working as technical advisor in poultry farms from last 7 years but didnot see so much coccidiosis in my 7 years. I am facing very difficulty even in hot environment and dry littler conditions to control coccidiosis. Can you give me your valuable suggestions?
dear doctors may ALLAH BLESS YOU.your useful points are very helpful for me in future disease diagnosis.sometimes when coccidiosis is severe i think it may cause necrosis of intestine or hemorrhoegic lesions in intestine.and sometimes it takes 4 or 5 days to birds to recover from coccidiosis.i want to ask that can we use some antibiotics like amoxycillin or neomycine along with sulfa drug or toltrazuril to treat coccidiosis and secondary enteriitis at the same time or it may be harmful.i wil be very thankful if you share you information or experiences for this.thanks a lot.doctor syed
Thanks for all regarding the treatment and preventive measures for the cocci out breaks in the feild the use of cocci vaccinces is better to use in High value chicks like PL , GP ,PS and in layer flocks give very good results .
Better to use Multi strains containing vaccince and also look for the Method of vaccinations is important and the age of the vaccination. Mostly now one can do this vaccine from day old on wards up to 3 weeks of age .
Taking care for some vaccince companies as when some one will give it in the D/ W as there must be some preventive measure before starting the vaccinces and also at the end .
How ever the brolier flocks for which the topics started has got and shared so much informative discussuion from all over the world who are participitating at this Forum .
Thanks
Dear Syed Anjum, I also agree with Srir anjani and Nitin Suryavanish.
If you can use Bacillus Subtilis along with some lactic acid producing bacteria in combination with metabolic products of fermentation with regular drinking water. You can start this treatment from day 10 or from day 22. I hope you will find a very effective control on your all above mention problems.If you use too much chemicals may be you cant find a good FCR. If you required these products i can help you to find it. "MAX GROW" is a product which we are using from last year we have a complete control on entritis, coccidiosis and our FCR is 28.5 to 29.5 from last 7 flocks. If you need any help feel free to contact me.

everytime you have new things about coccidiosis or necrotic enteritits pls share with me.thanks again
coccidiosis is always found in the environment and usually you will start to not it few days post placement of chicks. It is usually assciated with poor hygiene falut likers , Over crowding, floors that are not cemented , Enteritis can also predispose to high level of coccidia infection.

Can you please mention liiteron composition
Is it available in Pakistan?
Coccidiosis is caused by various species of Eimeria, an Apicomplexa protozoan parasite. It is one of the common diseases in poultry, which is responsible for major economic losses worldwide.
The disease occurs only after ingestion of sporulated oocysts in susceptible hosts. Both clinically infected and recovered birds shed oocysts in their droppings, which contaminate feed, dust, water, litter, and soil. Oocysts may be transmitted by mechanical carriers.
