Ewes at 70 days of gestation were exposed by various routes to a culture of Chlamydia psittaci. Chlamydial infection of fetal tissues, generally accompanied by abortion, was observed only in four of six ewes inoculated via the tonsillar crypts and in five of seven ewes injected subcutaneously; most of these also developed antibodies to C psittaci. Seroconversion after normal lambing was also observed in most ewes inoculated orally or by stomach tube, despite failure to detect chlamydia in them.
怀孕70天的母羊通过各种途径接触鹦鹉热衣原体培养物。仅在通过扁桃体隐窝接种的6只母羊中的4只以及皮下注射的7只母羊中的5只中观察到胎儿组织的衣原体感染，通常伴有流产；其中大多数母羊也产生了针对鹦鹉热衣原体的抗体。在大多数经口或通过胃管接种的母羊中，尽管未检测到衣原体，但在正常产羔后也观察到了血清转化。
