Fowl Fox

Indication:

Prevention of fowl pox, both in the cutaneous or diphtheritic forms in chicken, layers, breeders and turkeys

Dosage:

By puncture or scarification.

Chickens, layers, breeders and turkeys: 1 dose/bird. Reconstitute the freezer-dried tablet in the diluent included (1,000 doses). Shake gently until complete resuspension of the freeze-dried tablet is achieved before administration. Dip the two-pronged needle, which is included, in the vaccine solution. Chickens, layers and breeders: Extend the wing membrane. Apply carefully the vaccine by puncturing the membrane in a manner that does not provoke lesions in the blood vessels. The needle must be freshly impregnated with the vaccine solution when performing each administration.

Turkeys: 1 drop of the vaccine solution will be applied by scarification in the thigh. Recommended vaccination program: Chicken: From 1 day of age. Layers and Breeders: Between the 8 and 12 wks of age. In areas of high risk of the disease, the vaccination can be administered on the day of hatching, revaccinating before the laying period. Turkeys: From 1 day of age. After 8-10 days post-vaccination, 1 or 2 nodules should appear at the injection site white transform into scabs, indicating that the bird has been vaccinated. The scabs will disappear within 2-3 wks after the vaccination.

Content: Per dose: Modified live homologous fowl pox greater than or equal to 10^4 EID_50
