Poultry, as a significant source of high-quality protein, holds immense importance for the well-being of a substantial portion of the global population. Consequently, ensuring the health of poultry is paramount to ensuring food security. Moreover, these feathered creatures are gaining increasing significance as cherished hobby animals in back-yard flocks. However, the scarcity of veterinarians specializing in the care and health of poultry is a concern, particularly in small animal practice, where many vets lack practical experience in managing poultry health and combating diseases.

The book encompasses various aspects of the poultry industry, including basic avian biology, infectious and non-infectious diseases, infection control measures, disease investigation, and legislation. It features full-color images, aiding in the accurate identification and diagnosis of poultry ailments. Additionally, practical guides are provided to promote disease prevention and control. The handbook also delves into areas of growing global importance, such as antimicrobial resistance, highlighting the need for proactive measures and strategies in poultry health management.
Written by esteemed international experts, this handbook serves as a valuable illustrated resource for veterinary professionals, veterinary students, and individuals aspiring to enter the poultry industry. It provides a thorough understanding of poultry health, enabling practitioners to provide optimal care and safeguard the well-being of these valuable domestic animals.
