What are you testing for?
I have used these guys to test for Marek's and as you can see they do PCR testing for a variety of things and test for gender. But you may be thinking of something else.

Im just getting a gender test done. I hatch and sell alot of heritage turkeys but I need more hens for next spring. So I really wanna know what I have in the 5 poults I just hatched because my hens are acting like their shutting down laying eggs for the year. It takes 3 to 6 months to know for sure turkey gender so I'm gonna get em tested.

I gender tested a silkie a year ago with bird iq and they have good pricing and a fast turn around time. https://iqbirdtesting.com/
You can test by using eggshell from newly hatched chicks, feathers, or blood. I did feathers and it was 100% accurate.

Gotcha - the company I linked to does gender testing. I haven't used them for that, but I noticed it as an option on the form.
One thing about them, they have excellent customer service guys who seem willing to explain everything over the phone and are quite knowledgeable (I think they may be vets!).
