Features: Chicken diseases are one of the major challenges that hinder chicken farmers from achieving prosperity. To help them solve this problem, this book was written. With the development of the chicken farming industry, veterinary drug outlets and clinics have been established everywhere. However, it is more practical for chicken farmers to master the patterns of chicken disease occurrence, diagnostic methods, and the selection of medications. Large-scale chicken farms have dedicated veterinary services, but most small and medium-sized farms do not have the capability or necessity to hire full-time veterinarians. If chicken farmers understand the patterns of disease occurrence and development, master the knowledge and methods of diagnosing chicken diseases, and learn the knowledge and techniques of selecting and using medications, they can promptly identify diseases in their flocks, take reasonable measures, and control the disease in its early stages, effectively eradicating outbreaks and significantly reducing economic losses.

It also provides advanced diagnostic methods, treatment, and epidemic control techniques for veterinarians in large-scale chicken farms, serving as an important guide for veterinary workers in chicken farms.
