After the chicks have successfully
weathered the first three or four
weeks of their lives, the next thing
they have to contend with is a d.
sease with a long name and a high
death rate. 1t is becoming more
common each year.
The digestive tract is affected in
this disease. The old birds are very
rarely affected, but may transmit 1t
to the young birds. The cause is a
very small organism which lives in
the intestines and is spread about the
yards through the dropping OF the
sick birds.
, Chicks from two weeks to month
are the most susceptible. After this
time the losses from this disease are
of no account.
They may become infected by
picking about in the soil which has
become contaminated with the drop
pings of an older infected hen or
through some young stock purchased
from another farm.
The germ enters with the food and
water and is carried down into the In
testines where it multiplies. This
sets up an Inflammation of the mites
tines, which in turn produces bloody
diarrhea. This is a characteristic
symptom.
The birds drink lot and usually
become drowsy. Death follows in a
few hours after the disease develops,
or there is a chance that it will re-
cover and become carrier. BY this
/ mean it does not die itself but car
ries the germs around in its body and
may give them off to infect other
birds. When examining dead chick
and this disease is suspected, look
over the intestines carefully. They
will be found to be very much red
dened and caecum or blind gut will
be greatly swollen and filled with mar
terial of bloody nature. This in
itself together with the fact that the
birds are a month old is oft times
sufficient to make positive diagnosis.
However to be sure of yourself, send
one into the laboratory for examina-
ton. To tell it from the white diar-
rhea keep in mind that white dirrhea
occurs during the first few days of
the chicks life while coccidiosis US
uduy appears dlCeI Llie CillCh IedCleo
two to four weeks of age. Then too
the enlarged caccum and the blood
diarrhea is characteristic of coccid-
iosis. The treatment of this disease
Is not as satisfactory as it might be.
AS in most chicken diseases the best
treatment is sanitation and operation
or destruction of the sick birds. But
we have found that the exclu-
sive feeding of sour milk or butter
milk havet very favorable affect in
retarding the progress of the di-

sease. The only reason we can as
scribe to this is that the germ does
not thrive in a medium that is strong
ly acid.
Take away all other foods and feed
this alone to affected fiocks, until the
deaths have ceased and the birds
appear better, after which they may
be put back on their regular diet.
We have found this treatment of
value is there if it should fail othtr-
wise. But it won't. Drugs are not
of value in the treatment of coccidi-
osis. Carefully destroy all the dead
birds. Clean and disinfect the prem
Uses as advised for white diarrhea and
use potassium permanganate as be-
fore described.
Now l really have not heard of
much of this disease in the focks in
this community, but Stearns is a
large county and should any of you
know places where this disease is
prevalent, why not pass this along.
Just word about Roup.
This disease is very prevalent at
this time of year. The first symp-
toms are a wheeze and watery dis
charge fro the nose. The eyes may
become red and watery also. Later on
the birds become listless and hang
around with their eyes shut. They
may give off that particularly Of
fensive "roupy SMELL"
1t is very hard to treat a bird for
roup. When you see bird in your
flock with swollen and protruding
eyes, just wiring their necks and dip
the heads of the rest in a per cent
solution of creolin. The disease
spreads rapidly and if any good is
to be done treatment should be start
ed as soon as first signs are noticed.
We all know that lice and mites
cause heavy losses among our birds,
especially the baby chicks. LIE US try
and have the mature birds free from
them so the baby, chicks will not
have them.
