Clinical Signs:
conjunctivitis, ocular discharge
Clinical description:
The chicken on the right is exhibiting signs of severe conjunctivitis, with swelling and redness of the conjunctiva and surrounding periorbital tissues as well as copious yellow ocular discharge. Such findings are common in laryngotracheitis. Most chickens will recover from the infection within 10-14 days, if the infection is not complicated by immunosuppression or a secondary infection. A normal chicken is shown on the left for comparison.
