Infectious Coryza

Signs

• Watery eyes
• Facial swelling, including one or both eyes swelled shut
• Foul smelling discharge from the nose
• Diarrhea
• Low egg production
• Wheezing

Transmission

This is very contagious, and is easy spread by any kind of contact by sick, or carrier birds.

Diagnosis

The most common signs of this are facial swelling, including eyes swollen shut, with a fowl odor from the nasal area.

Treatment

• Streptomycin
• Erythromycin
• Sulfadimethoxine

It is recommended to cull infected birds, as symptoms can come back after treatment, and all infected birds become carriers of this disease, and will continue to infect other fowl on your yard.
