Broiler chicken with a duplicated lower intestinal tract.

A case is described of a duplicated lower intestinal tract in a broiler chicken. The ileum branched to form two lower intestinal tracts. The ileum of the malformed branch was swollen and attached to paired ceca that were grossly enlarged, and the rectum was a swollen blind sac, disconnected from the exterior of the bird.
