Fowl Paralysis in Poultry Stock Declared Incurable
County Agent W. F. Bembry told Taylor county farmers this week that no evidence proves fowl paralysis can be cured. Also called range paralysis, the disease can be serious in Georgia flocks with losses often reaching 50 percent or more during the pullet year. Vitamin E trials have failed, though vitamin E remains necessary for hatchability. Most rations provide enough B vitamins, so supplementation is usually unnecessary. Symptoms appear as birds reach fryer size and continue for 12 months or more, causing lameness, body paralysis, or blindness. any affected bird should be killed at once.
