An inventory of poultry parasitism in hens and Guinea fowls in village breeding was conducted from May 1985 to April 1987 in the Niamey department. About 1,200 post-mortem examinations and haematological tests, as well as 6,000 faecal egg counts were performed. The internal polyparasitism was observed in two thirds of the cases. Guinea fowls were more infected than chickens. Cestodiasis was frequent in both species. The omnipresent spirochaetosis made a potential danger for the improved flocks. Ectoparasitoses were mainly represented by argas and scaly-legs, which affected one chicken out of ten.
1985年5月至1987年4月期间，在尼亚美省对农村养殖的母鸡和珍珠鸡的家禽寄生虫情况进行了清查。进行了约1200次尸检和血液学检测，以及6000次粪便虫卵计数。在三分之二的病例中观察到体内多重寄生虫感染。珍珠鸡比鸡感染更严重。两种禽类中绦虫病都很常见。普遍存在的螺旋体病对改良鸡群构成潜在危险。体外寄生虫主要是锐缘蜱和鳞腿病，每十只鸡中有一只受影响。
