Okay. No one responded to my post about the poult just dying out of the blue. They are only a week old tomorrow and over the weekend I put the packing peanuts in another brooder. Should I put the chicks back in with the turkeys. I guess I'm thinking that maybe without the chicks, they are not eating and drinking like they should. Any suggestions would help. I really don't want to lose any more turkeys. I'm down to 9 now.

ACV is wonderful for them I think, and the electrolytes too. Sounds like you're doing everything right, and hopefully you just had a weak poult and everyone else will be fine.
