5 STEPS TO PREVENT & PROTECT AGAINST COCCIDIOSIS
As we earlier saw coccidiosis is a common and devastating disease in poultry. Prevention and control are crucial to maintaining the health and productivity of your flock. Here are the best ways to prevent and protect your poultry farm from coccidiosis:
1. Maintain Proper Biosecurity
• Use footbaths with a broadspectrum disinfectant at the entry of poultry houses.
• Restrict access to the farm to reduce the risk of introducing coccidia from outside sources.
2. Ensure Good Sanitation
• Clean and disinfect the poultry house, equipment, feeders, and drinkers regularly to eliminate coccidia from the environment.
• Keep litter dry and well-aerated as coccidia thrive in moist environments.
• Remove and properly dispose of manure to reduce the risk off contamination.
3. Use Medicated Feeds
• Include coccidiostats in the feed, especially for young birds, to prevent the parasite from multiplying in the intestines. Pretect D is a natural solution to prevent coccidiosis. We shall cover it in detail tomorrow
4. Monitor and Manage Stress
• Keep stocking densities low to reduce stress and the spread of coccidia among birds.
• Ensure good ventilation to reduce humidity and ammonia levels, which can exacerbate coccidiosis.
• Limit factors like sudden temperature changes, poor nutrition, and rough handling that can weaken birds’ immune systems.
5. Regular Health Monitoring
• Regularly inspect birds for signs of coccidiosis, such as bloody droppings, lethargy, reduced feed intake, and weight loss.
• If coccidiosis is detected, consult with a veterinarian immediately to start treatment and prevent further spread.
By implementing these preventive measures, you can effectively protect your poultry farm from the threat of coccidiosis and maintain the health and productivity of your birds.
