With no new anticoccidials coming onto the market and major poultry companies shifting from “raised without antibiotics” to “no antibiotics important to human medicine” programs, the pressure is on to preserve the efficacy of current feed medications and seek alternatives for managing coccidiosis.

Adnan Ali Khalaf Alrubaye, PhD, University of Arkansas, and his research team conducted a research project that aimed to achieve lameness reduction in broiler chickens via in ovo immunization with an eBeam-treated multi-strain Staphylococcus vaccine.
The Poultry Science Association announced the purchase of European Poultry Science from Eugen Ulmer Publishing House of Stuttgart, Germany. The journal joins PSA’s family of leading international research properties, including its flagship title, Poultry Science, and the applied journal, The Journal of Applied Poultry Research.
Vaccines are essential tools for managing diseases in poultry and ensuring flock welfare. Taking shortcuts with them is never a good idea, however, and there’s plenty of research to prove it. In the second of a two-part series, Bill Stanley, DVM, and Isabel Gimeno, DVM, PhD, talked about their experiences managing vaccines and ensuring optimum performance.
A recent study in Brazil showed that the technology behind a proprietary bacteriophage “cocktail” developed by PhageLab can significantly reduce the presence of Salmonella in poultry farms.
Saponins have become an increasingly common additive in poultry diets over the past decade, thanks to their potential to support bird health and reduce emissions, but it’s crucial for producers to carefully select the right saponins to maximize benefits for their flocks.

Enrichment improves the environment of an animal, to meet their behavioral needs and ultimately improve their welfare. Although the research related to enrichments for broiler breeders is sparse, there are several different types of enrichments that have been shown to be beneficial. In this article, Marcela Quino and Bethany Baker-Cook, PhD, Auburn University describe a few of these enrichments that are particularly effective for broiler breeders.
