About This Book

A practical handbook for poultry keepers that explains prevention, recognition, and treatment of diseases afflicting domestic fowl. It emphasizes quarantine, proper housing, feeding, sanitation, and early isolation of sick birds; summarizes external symptoms and remedies; and addresses parasites and miscellaneous ailments. Diseases are described in accessible, often alphabetical entries with causes, signs, and suggested treatments, while illustrated sections and step-by-step guidance cover post-mortem examinations and disinfection techniques. Practical advice on nursing, the use of medicines, and farm-level control measures aims to reduce losses and assist readers in maintaining flock health.
