Mixed Poultry Flocks Have More Tuberculosis
A University of Illinois vet reports mixed flocks of old and young chickens harbor more tuberculosis than all young flocks. U S Bureau tests in McLean County show 22 of 53 flocks diseased, while none of 48 pullet flocks carried TB. The all pullet program helps control TB in swine, and steps include separate fields, clean ranges, and post sale sanitation.
