Coccidiosis vaccination in commercial broilers is a growing trend worldwide. The main reason for this is the better and more efficient productive performance with attenuated coccidiosis vaccines, in continuous or rotation strategies, compared to the only use of anticoccidial drugs.
Additionally, there is an increased emphasis on the One Health strategy and the Non-antibiotic-ever movement to reduce the use of antibiotics, such certain anticoccidial drugs with antibiotic effect, in poultry livestock.
As a result, new vaccines against avian coccidiosis, attenuated by precociousness, specifically developed for spray or in-ovo administration, are becoming a good alternative to control this challenging disease.
