Chlamydophila is a systemic disease caused by the bacterium Chlamydia psittaci. The disease may present as asymptomatic or chronic, but in severe cases, it can become acute and life-threatening, with high mortality rates.
The disease is transmitted primarily through ingestion or inhalation. Bacterial particles are protected by an organic coating of feces and debris, making them resistant to drying and infectious for several months. Transmission through biting insects is also possible.
Consult with a Veterinarian
Non-specific symptoms may include anorexia, apathy, reduced egg-laying, diarrhea, eye discharge, ruffled feathers, and respiratory tract infections. In its acute form, the disease can affect internal organs such as the liver, spleen, and lungs.
Chlamydophila is a zoonotic disease, meaning it can be transmitted from animals to humans.
