Chronic respiratory symptoms were observed in most birds, with the predominant lesion being tracheitis. The typical symptoms and lesions were reproduced experimentally by subcutaneous and intraperitoneal inoculations with an E. faecalis strain, but attempts to cause infection by aerosolization were unsuccessful.
