| Summary: | The level of endoparasitic infestation in semi commercial village chicken and
scavenging village chicken in a village located in Simpang Renggam Kluang, Johor
were compared. 6 random chicken feces samples were obtained from semi commercial
village chicken from Aqil Aqilah farm and 6 random chicken feces samples were
obtained from the surrounding area within the village. From the laboratory test done to
detect the quantity of the parasite, it revealed that there was absence of helminths ova in
all samples obtained. However, coccidial oocysts were detected in some of the samples.
There is 1 sample from the semi commercial chicken with count of 0 oocysts per gram,3 samples from the semi commercial chicken with count of 50 oocysts per gram, 1
sample from the semi commercial chicken with count of 150 oocysts per gram and
another 1 sample from the semi commercial chicken with count of 1000 oocysts per
gram. For scavenging village chicken, the result revealed there are 4 samples with count
of 0 oocysts per gram, 1 sample with 150 oocysts per gram and another 1 with count of
250 oocysts per gram. From the result obtained, there was no significant difference in
the coccidial level in semi commercial village chicken and scavenging village chicken
based on chi-square test (P>0.05). |
