Avian infectious bronchitis, caused by a strain of Avian coronavirus previously known as infectious bronchitis virus^[2]
Avian infectious laryngotracheitis, caused by Gallid alphaherpesvirus 1^[3]
Avian influenza, caused by Avian influenza virus^[4]
Duck plague, caused by Anatid alphaherpesvirus 1
Chicken infectious anemia, caused by Chicken anaemia virus^[5]
Epidemic tremor, caused by Tremovirus^[6]
Fowlpox, caused by viruses in the genus Avipoxvirus
Infectious bursal disease (IBD), also known Gumboro disease, caused by Infectious bursal disease virus
Lymphoid leukosis caused by avian sarcoma leukosis virus
Marek's disease
Newcastle disease
Viral arthritis, caused by Avian reovirus^[7]

Parasitic diseases[edit]

Infestation of Echidnophaga gillinacea fleas on the comb and around the eye of a chicken

Scaly leg, caused by the mite Knemidocoptes mutans^[8]
Infestation by Dermanyssus gallinae, the red poultry mite^[9]
Infestation by Echidnophaga gallinacea, the sticktight flea^[10]

Bacterial diseases[edit]

Protozoal diseases[edit]

Histomoniasis (blackhead disease), caused by Histomonas meleagridis
Coccidiosis
Trichomonas gallinae

Fungal diseases[edit]

Ergotism, which occurs when poultry feed is contaminated with toxic alkaloids produced by fungi of the genus Claviceps^[11]
