  • - The drinkers should be thoroughly cleaned before vaccination without disinfectant.

  • - Water withholding period may vary according to age of birds and weather conditions (average 1 to 2 hours).

  • - Prepare the required volume of water that will be consumed by the chicken in 2 hours. This volume may change according to the weather and environmental conditions.

    10-12 days10 liters
    13-18 days15 liters
    19-26 days25-30 liters
    Above 8 weeks40 liters or volume of water that will consumed by chicken in 2 hours


  • - Mix 2.5 gm of skimmed milk powder per liter of water as an aid in preserving the virus activity and neutralize the chlorine. Do not use water containing high concentration of metal ions.

  • - Mix the vaccine with clean, cool, non-chlorinated water by opening the vial under the water and let stand for 10 minutes.

  • - For nipple lines open the water system, lower the lines up to the normal height of the birds and check distribution throughout the house.
