Necrotic Enteritis in a Budgerigar Flock

Öz

Dear Editor;

Etiology of Necrotic Enteritis is associated with Clostridium perfiringens. However, predisposing factors are crucial for overgrowing and developing of C. perfringens (Opengart 2008). A lot of and varying underlying causes for necrotic enteritis have been identified, which are dietary factors, immune status and stress, intestinal physiopathology, and coccidiosis (Opengart 2008, Stanley ve ark. 2014).
