dc.description.abstractThis study was conducted with the following objectives: (1) to identify the common infectious diseases affecting native chickens in the First District of La Union; (2) to determine which locality of the First District of La Union has the highest incidence of infectious diseases in native chickens; and (3) to determine the effect of season (dry and rainy) in the occurrence of infectious diseases of native chickens in the First District of La Union. This study was conducted from October 2006 to March 2007 in six randomly selected towns of the First District of La Union classified as plain areas (San Juan and Bangar), hilly areas (San Gabriel and Sudipen), and coastal areas (San Fernando and Bacnotan). The respondents of the study were the backyard native chicken raisers from the First District of La Union who were raising 10 or more birds. A total of 252 randomly selected native chicken raisers were interviewed using structured questionnaire. The questions were translated in the vernacular to avoid language difficulty. The questionnaire includes the demographic profile of the raisers, native chicken management, health care practice of the respondents and the infectious diseases affecting their native chickens. Results showed that Newcastle Disease, Infectious Coryza, Chronic Respiratory Disease, Fowl cholera, Fowl pox, and Pullorum Disease were the common infectious diseases of native chickens in the First District of La Union. Native chicken in San Fernando were the most highly affected with infectious diseases. Infectious diseases of native chickens occur during dry season.
