1. Avian Influenza (Bird Flu): A viral infection that can cause high mortality and respiratory issues.

2. Newcastle Disease: A highly contagious viral disease affecting the respiratory, nervous, and digestive systems, leading to high mortality rates.

3. Infectious Bursal Disease (IBD): A viral disease that causes immunosuppression and affects young birds, leading to increased susceptibility to other diseases.

4. Marek’s Disease: A viral disease that causes tumors and immunosuppression, mainly affecting young chickens.

5. Fowl Cholera: A bacterial disease caused by Pasteurella multocida, leading to sudden deaths and respiratory symptoms.

6. Coccidiosis: A parasitic disease caused by Eimeria species, affecting the intestinal tract and causing diarrhea and weight loss.

7. Salmonellosis: A bacterial infection caused by Salmonella species, leading to diarrhea, septicemia, and reduced egg production.
