The study was designed to record coccidiosis disease in broiler and layer flock in and around the Lahore District of Pakistan during the one year period out of 119 broiler flocks affected with different disease problem 51 broiler flocks were affected with this disease. The prevalence of disease was found to be 42.85 % in broiler flocks. The result revealed that out of 127 layer flocks 42 layer flocks were affected with coccidiosis. The prevalence of the disease in layer was 33.07% while in broiler it was highest (51.7%) during late summer followed by winter (45.9%) then summer (37.5%) whereas the lowest (34.48%) during spring season. The highest prevalence (65.78%) was noted in 3-4 weeks birds and the lowest (6.66%) during their earlier age (1-2 weeks). Prevalence of coccidiosis in layer was the highest during late summer (45.00%) followed by winter (35.50%), summer 25.71%) whereas the lowest (20%) was found during spring season. The highest
(54.16%) prevalence was recorded in layers of 5-6 weeks and the lowest (7.14%) during their earlier age (1-2) weeks.
