ABSTRACT
The presence of "Salmonella" was investigated in transport boxes of newly hatched chicks in the moment they were recieved in the farms. 1,611 boxes, delivered to 15 farms (one broiler grand-parent farm, four broiler parent farms, two commercial broiler chick farms and seven laying hen farms) were tested. A total of 19 visits to these farms were done, and "Salmonella" was detected in ten of these visits. "Salmonella" Heidelberg was detected in boxes in five farms. "S." Heidelberg and "S." Mbandaka were simultaneously detected in one broiler breeder farm. "Salmonella" Enteritidis alone, "S. Enteritidis and "S." Mbandaka and "S." Cerro alone were detected in three, one and one laying hens farms, respectively
