The cause of this disease is Streptococcus gallolyticus completely. The disease also under the name of the muscle or leaf disease is known in Belgium. At a fancier observes a dove, which can fly more poorly or not at all. Often we think then of course of infection with the paratyphoid bacterium. But it's still long, not always the case. It is striking that this disease cases in beats, where less hygiene, more occur. Also they occur more frequently in women in the Zuchsaison. It can happen that a hen on eggs in the morning still in good condition, can fly at noon no longer and died a few hours later, before there is any other evidence. These other symptoms can be limp and Hängenlassen of both wings. It is typical that a pigeon can no longer fly in their chest. These symptoms also reminiscent of paratyphoid. It can then also be a complication of a paratyphoid infection. When the pigeons suddenly die, a green, slimy thin bowel movements can occur. The doves drink sometimes even more. Usually, the appetite is gone. The condition deteriorated very quickly. During the breeding, even embryonic mortality can occur. As is often thought of paratyphoid, is awarded in these cases with Batryl or Trimsuifa. This therapy has no effect then but, because the Streptococ does not respond to these funds. If the Streptococ bacterial infection pressure is too high, sometimes notice that the services of the boys are not obliged to. The boys train then only moderately and the losses among the young are very high. The condition can suffer even when infected older pigeons. They're often no prices. If the speech is in a blow from an outbreak, all of these symptoms can spread over several pigeons. So, not all pigeons have all symptoms. When symptoms spread across several pigeons, it makes sense to think about the possibility of this infection. Infections should be, never blind gekurt but very definitely not at Streptococcose. Many agents that are used in various infections in pigeons have not or hardly against these bacteria with the result that the situation may deteriorate further. In shock with grid corridors, it has been significantly less damage of the bacterium. If it has to do with this bacterium, attaching bars is often a good way to have the outbreak for a long time in the handle. The risk of repeated infection is small, because the birds run less by the crap. During an acute outbreak of Streptococcose, such as powder 22 or bony AMCO are effective. Also bony-Jodi is also Ampicilline effectively, 2 grams per litre during at least seven days. Trimsuifa, Altabactine, or Baytril effect if this infection is not, because the bacterium does not speak. Streptococci can always occur in pigeons. It's a bacterium, which is normal in pigeons. But even with this bacterium is that the disease occurs only when regarding the infection pressure and some requirements are met the defence of the pigeon. You can reduce the infection pressure is high keeps the defense of pigeons and in eight takes enough hygiene measures (grid). It is also clear, that the use of immune-boosting bony SGR reduces the problems caused by this bacterium.
