D S Lindsay, and B L Blagburn, and F J Hoerr, and J J Giambrone

Developmental stages of Cryptosporidium baileyi were observed on the conjunctival epithelium of 3 of 14 chicks and none of 7 turkeys following ocular inoculation of oocysts. No clinical signs of disease were observed in chicks or turkeys. All 14 chicks had developmental stages of C. baileyi in the cloaca, whereas 4 of the 7 turkeys were infected at this site.
