As soon as the chicks were hatched, they were orally inoculated (Table1) and subsequently housed in groups (each group consisting of fivechicks). Nine groups wereused in each experiment and in total, 180 chickens were used in this study(45 per experiment). Each stable contained a controlgroup (non-treated animals), a group that was treated with enrofloxacin(BaytrilTM2.5% injectable solution; Bayer AG, Leverkusen, Germany) intra-muscularly and a group that received enrofloxacin via drinking water(BaytrilTM10% oral solution; Bayer AG).
