Abstract
DURING February and March of 1965 some particularly heavy body lice infestations were found on fowls in both deep litter and cage units in Western Australia.
In some instances comparatively new laying cage units were involved.
The most seriously affected flocks showed marked unthriftiness and depressed egg production.
