Commercially prepared serum for poultry is not a common, widespread product for treating viral diseases, unlike vaccines. Instead, hyperimmune serum is typically prepared on a large scale in specialized labs for specific diseases, like Newcastle disease, and distributed to farms when an outbreak occurs. The process involves inoculating animals, such as rabbits or chickens, with a specific virus or its components, followed by a period of time to allow them to develop a high level of antibodies. The blood is then collected from these animals to produce the hyperimmune serum. This serum is then purified and made available to veterinarians for use in treating infected flocks.

The most common type of housing for poultry production is the intensive/confinement system, which includes methods like the litter system and cage systems. In this system, birds are kept indoors with controlled environments, but the deep litter system and cage systems are the most popular due to their high stocking density and efficiency.
