Paperwork and Testing

What is pullorum disease and why do I need to have my birds tested?

pullorum disease of chickens is a bacterial infection caused by Salmonella pullorum. Pullorum is almost exclusively a septicaaemic disease of young chickens. But may also be associated with disease in turkey poults and may be carried subclinically or lead to reduced egg production and hatchability, plus a range of atypical signs in older birds.
