| Abstract | ||
| A study was conducted to identify and estimate the prevalence of gastrointestinal helminthes of chickens in both local (open system) and farm breeding (closed system) in different area in Baghdad (khadhemiya, Abugarib, and Taji) during the period February 2004-June 2004. Two hundred and sixty (260) chickens were cross-sectioned and examined for the presence of gastrointestinal helminthes (130 chickens of each breeding). A total of four species were detected: Ascaridia galli 35(36.9%), Raillietina tetragona 15(11.5%) 9(6.8%) in local and farm breeding respectively. While Heterakis gallinarum 10(6.7%) and Subulura brumpti 7(5.3%) were found only in local chickens. This study indicated that the prevalence of gastrointestinal helminthes in local breeding was higher than farm breeding chickens. | ||
