ESCHERICHIA COLI SEPTICEMIA IN PHEASANTS

J. R. CREITZ 1 and NOLA N. SMALL 1

1 Microbiology Dept., 1st U. S. Army Medical Lab No. 1 Ft. Meade, Md. 20755

Signs of colibacillosis were observed in a flock of captive pheasants. A diagnosis of Escherichia coli septicemia was made on two moribund pheasants after large numbers of this bacterium were observed microscopically in their blood and the organisms were recovered on culture of the blood. The serotype of the organism was O1:ab:K1:H7. Marked improvement of the sick birds was noted after they were given oxytetrycyline in the feed.
