Clostridial Dermatitis is indeed a challenging issue, and we understand your frustration. It’s a disease that can persist in an environment due to the presence of Clostridium bacteria, which are resilient and can survive in various conditions. While eradicating CD entirely can be difficult, there are strategies that help manage and reduce its prevalence. Key approaches include improving biosecurity measures, managing litter quality, ensuring good ventilation, and adjusting bird density to reduce stress and the spread of infection. Additionally, feed additives that support gut health and immune function can make a difference. We’ve seen that a combination of practices-not just one solution-can be effective over time.
