Coccidial oocysts in the liver of a Turkey poult [PDF]
The liver of a 5-week-old turkey poult submitted for examination was found to have multiple focal lesions which contained unsporulated coccidial oocysts. These oocysts sporulated after incubation and were subsequently identified as oocysts of E. adenoeides. The source of the oocysts was not determined.
