Clinical description:
In young birds infected with infectious bronchitis virus (IBV), some of the earliest signs of the disease include depression and ruffled feathers, as exhibited by some of the birds seen here. Birds may also huddle near heat sources. These signs typically appear within 24 hours post-infection. Young birds are more susceptible to IBV than older birds.
