HOW DOES STOCKING DENSITY AFFECT COCCIVAC VACCINATION?

A. Youll get more uniform results if the initial stocking density is 0.75 ft2 to 1.0 ft2 per bird. Higher stocking density could result in excessive litter moisture and a high litter oocyst density. After vaccination, third-house and half-house brooding encourages proper Coccivac cycling for the first 7 to 14 days. Remember that for full immunity to develop, birds require not only the initial dose of live sporulated oocysts administered via the vaccine, but two or more life cycles of coccidia. Q.
