A two-hour lecture on common health challenges for backyard poultry flocks, with emphasis on chickens. As backyard poultry continues to grow in popularity, there is an increased need for veterinary care for these flocks that is often provided by local small-animal clinicians. These practitioners will benefit from this practical presentation on disease recognition, simple diagnostic procedures, treatment options, proper management/husbandry, and preventive health care strategies. We will also discuss high-impact diseases such as Avian Influenza and Newcastle Disease which are critically important to recognize.

This session originally was presented at AVMA Convention 2024.
