histomoniasis include yellow (“sulfur-
colored”) feces, depression, ruffled
feathers, huddling, anorexia, and in some
birds cyanosis of the head where the

• Fowl cholera is a contagious bacterial infection.
The disease can range from acute septicaemia
(blood poisoning) to chronic and localised
infections. Transmission can occur through
secretions from carrier birds, infected droppings,
or cannibalism of dead birds, as well as through
contaminated feed, water, equipment, or
clothing. Wild birds and animals such as
raccoons, opossums, dogs, cats, pigs, and
rodents may harbor the disease and serve as
reservoirs of infection that actively spread the
disease.
