         Fowl Typhoid



          This is a highly infectious disease in poultry caused by

          bacteria called salmonella typhi.


          The disease is transmitted to chicks by carrier hens through

          eggs.


          Salmonella also affects human beings, so it is dangerous to

          eat raw eggs.
