My chicken died as a cause of an inflammation of the liver.The liver was big than normal and pale.what is the cause of this and which disease is this,it's control and treatment?

 

[nedward]

Hepatitis in birds( liver inflamation) is really diagnostic unless accompanied by other signs as cause of liver inflamation varies from bacterial, fungal, protozoal, nutritional defficiecy, consumption of toxic feed(mouldy feed). The only sure way of managing this condition is scalling up your management skills by never over feeding your birds on high energy without exercise to avoid fatty liver syndrome and keeping pathogens at bay.
