Abstract

Bobwhite quail (Colinus virginianus) were exposed to infection of fowl cholera by housing them in a pen where experimental epornitics of fowl cholera were in progress. These bobwhites subsequently were allowed to cohabit with susceptible turkeys. None of the turkeys developed fowl cholera thereby suggesting that the bobwhite is not a vector of fowl cholera.
