Ok, so the first time I raised turkeys I lost a lot of babies early on. I contributed this to it being my first time, and having them at first in a near capacity brooder. This time, I only had 16 in a GQF tiered system so they had one brooder all to their own. 4 days into it I have lost 5. 2 just got sick and died, the others were found flat. They have good heat and are comfortable, active, eating game bird starter and doing well until one randomly dies. First batch was from McMurray this one is from Meyer. I am 35/35 on chickens, 19/20 on duckings and 9/10 on goslings all arrived at the same time. Is this something I am doing wrong, or just turkey specific? They are broad breasted bronze.
