Sell Poor Layers
After Bronchitis

Poultry floclIs that do not lay
quality eggs within 2 months after
they recover from infectious bron-
chitis should be sold, warns DR..
Clyde Marsh, veterinarian and
Extension poultry specialist at
Ohio State University.
He explains that poultry flocks
suffering attacks of infectious
bronchitis may lay poor quality
eggs even after they seem to have
recovered. In these cases, repro
ductive tracts of hens are dam
aged. Such hens lay eggs with
poor shells and thin, watery
whites
These eggs grade poorly and
the flock will not be profitable,
DR.. Marsh continues. Such flocks
should be sold off for meat"
Ohio poultrymen, especially in
the northwest, nave reported out
breaks of infectious bronchitis.
1t causes egg production to drop
1/3 to 1/2 of what is normal.
Dr. Marsh suggested that poul-
trymcn who have bronchitis-free
flocks should isolate their birds
from all possible sources of the
disease. 1t probably gets onto most
farms via contaminated crates or
equipment.
Although there is no known
specific treatment, elimination of
drafts and feeding warm, moist
mashes to encourage eating will
help birds with the disease.
