What are the main signs of piglet coccidiosis?
The main clinical sign of coccidiosis is diarrhoea that varies from white to yellow in colour and from a pasty to a watery consistency. Blood is never present. As a result of Coccidia infection, the incidence of secondary bacterial infections increases, and the daily weight gain of affected animals decreases compared with uninfected animals. Accordingly, weaning herds are highly heterogenous.
