Sudden death syndrome in broiler breeders at the point of lay was a serious problem in Australia for 18 months. This condition was reproduced by a combination of dietary and management practices. Chickens fed a diet low in potassium, phosphorus, protein, and energy had plasma potassium and phosphorus levels significantly lower than the levels seen in the controls. The plasma values of the test breeders were similar to levels seen in field cases. There was a significant difference (P less than 0.01) in the venous acid-base balance between the test chickens and controls. Test chickens were alkalotic and had a 6% mortality rate between 18 and 30 weeks of age.
