dc.description.abstractA rare case of subcutaneous emphysema in fantail pigeon flock due to itching leading to continuous scratching with inanimate objects caused by lice infestation was reported in Livestock Farm Complex (TANUVAS), Chennai, Tamil Nadu in the month of January 2018. Examination of feathers revealed the presence of lice and these lice were collected and identified as Columbicola columbae, a slender biting type louse. Post-surgical intervention with injectable antibiotic along with B complex treatment resulted in uneventful recovery within 7 days. The flock of pigeons were sprayed with deltamethrin solution and were examined on regular interval (0th day, 4th day, 7th day and 15th day) to ascertain the presence of lice visually.en_US
