The correct option is A Thrush
Thrush is caused by the fungus, Candida albicans. It affects the alimentary canal of the poultry animals. It causes thickening and white plaques on the mucosa, intestine, and cloaca. Dejection, poor appetite and slow growth is the sign of the disease. It can be prevented by maintaining hygiene and feeding the poultry animals with chlorinated water.
