A disease commonly seen in turkey and broiler flocks can also affect layers, meaning that producers should look out for its distinctive signs. Clostridium septicum dermatitis was recently found across multiple sites of a single company, Michaela Olson, DVM, of Wilson Veterinary Care, told Poultry Health Today. The diagnosis began with a mortality spike and unusual feedback when dead birds were sent for further analysis.

Genomic technology sheds light on Salmonella serotypes in breeder flocks
A technology called CRISPR-SeroSeq, which amplifies a section of the Salmonella genome, is helping paint a clearer picture of the serotypes circulating in breeder flocks. The knowledge gained may help poultry producers design more targeted control measures.Chapters:0:00 Intro0:11 Nikki Shariat, PhD, University of Georgia0:22 Salmonella isolation techniques in poultry1:59 Salmonella Kentucky prevalence3:19 CRISPR-SeroSeq: Whole genome sequencing4:56 S.
