Abstract

Commercial Japanese quail farming is on the rise in India and currently holds the second largest poultry population next to chickens. This 400-word abstract will discuss the general management practices, feeding management, and disease management in this growing industry. Though Japanese quail are hardier compared to chickens, they are still susceptible to various infectious and non-infectious diseases due to intensive rearing systems. This abstract will explore common diseases such as brooder pneumonia, omphalitis, coccidiosis, ulcerative enteritis, mycoplasmosis, pasteurellosis, and Newcastle disease, and the importance of implementing strict bio-security procedures to prevent and control pathogens in and around the farm
