Wary ... Collibacillosis

Collibacillosis is a digestive disease that almost every month to chickens, the disease caused by the bacterium Escherichia colli can be either local or systemic. Besides, it can also occur as a primary infection or secondary infection where infection E.Colli infected chickens were found after IB, ND, ILT or CRD.

Transmission of the disease can occur both vertically (through the mother hen) during the process of egg formation, where E.colli infect the ovaries so eggs produced contaminated. Horizontally occur during home maintenance, transmission through general egg is found, the eggs are contaminated with feces that has been contaminated by E.Colli. Normally 0.5-6% contained eggs have been contaminated with the bacteria E.Colli the stable. In addition to the stool, there are several other antaa transmission medium: dust in the cage, cage dust concentration reaches E.Colli on 105-106/gram, an amount equal to the concentration in the chicken digestive tract and the bacteria are able to survive long in the dust.

Feed rations and drinking water is often used as a parameter on the attack collibacilosis breeder. With a transmission media such as those mentioned above, it can be said E.Colli bacteria are always in the cage and can infect chickens at any time.

Colibacillosis attacks could occur at any time, knows no season. Field may still be thought that Colli only appears at the beginning of the rainy season which occurs due to seepage of water from the cage into the water source. In fact, on average, well / water source is located close to the chicken coop. When heavy rains, water pooled in the dirt, which is then able to flow into nearby water sources and water carrying rembeslah E. coli of the cage it into the well. However, during the dry season we find cases in the field Colli Well .... turns out the cause is dust in the cage. After wondering here and there turned out to be the biggest case of infection occurred at the mid to late dry season and early rainy season. Mid to late dry as possible appears coli attack down the flow of water, so the concentration of E coli bacteria in the water increases. A high concentration of bacteria in the water, if swallowed chicken is in less good condition will cause the chicken as flooded bacteria. In the dry season the dust easily fly so can act as carriers of the disease germ E. coli. Some have even suggested Infection Technical Service E. coli is more likely through the dust rather than through water
