Bloody droirvinu are seen when the chicks are infected with the cecal type of the disease and to a less extent in one of the other types.

Often chickens and poults are found dead without any nick- nesa being evident. acute infections droopineas, diar- rhoea. and periods of dejection are observed. The comb and wat- tles are pale.
