  • Title: Coccidiosis in rabbits: a field study.
    Author: Peeters JE, Geeroms R, Froyman R, Halen P.
    Journal: Res Vet Sci; 1981 May; 30(3):328-34. PubMed ID: 7255926.
    Abstract:
    During a survey 1052 faecal samples were examined in commercial and domestic rabbitries in Belgium. Nine different species of Eimeria were recognised. E magna, E media and E perforans were very common in both production methods. E flavescens, E intestinalis and E stiedai occurred more commonly in traditionally reared rabbits. E stiedai was not recorded in commercial rabbitries. E coecicola, E irresidua and E piriformis were less common. Oocyst output was suppressed in increasing efficacy by clopidol, sulphaquinoxaline/pyrimethamine (10:1), sulphadimidine and robenidine (P less than 0.01). The use of a droppings pit reduced the level of coccidial infection significantly compared with a sledge type of cleaning mechanism (P less than 0.001).
