Abstract
The focus of health examinations has shifted from the individual bird to the flock. Veterinarians are still required to perform health exami nations on individual birds to diagnose diseases and contribute to the health of the flock. This article discusses clinical evaluation of ph ysical examination, diagnostic testing and necropsy procedures. Presen tations of disease in juveniles are also discussed as a problem area. Recommendations to prevent and treat diseases are included.
