Is there any way to know before they start showing symptoms?
I wouldn't say expert, lol, but I have seen many with blackhead, way too many.I do not know. casportpony is the expert on this kind of stuff!
Well speak of the devil!!!
One of my turkeys had bright yellow poop yesterday, today he is lethargic and I do not have metronidazole on hand but did dose with more Vit B complex, though that alone will not help. This is not supposed to be very common in my area BUT I did put these boys on ground that has had chickens free ranging for a good many years.
Thank goodness my peas are not here to my farm yet but even so, I feel the need to treat their new area with high doses of salt to kill out everything that will be where their pens are.
I am super ****** about this. I have had turkeys for well over a year with no problems.
Three years in a row now most of the majority of outbreaks have occured between August and December and it's been real dry, even in the winter.Kat have you had alot of rain when these outbreaks occur?
Have you ever seen it break out in the winter or do you have mild weather all the time?
I haven't, but that doesn't mean a thing, lol.

called to their knowledge there has not been a case if it in Ok. Seems it is not wet enough.I'm really sorry... what are you going to do? Zaz found that metronidazole/praziquantel for fish labeled as "API General Cure" and I just saw that Petsmart carries it: http://www.petsmart.com/product/ind...ferralID=a269bba6-4327-11e3-bae4-001b2166c2c0 Just check the ingredients on the back and make sure metronidazole is listed.

I just talked to Oklahoma State University (the ag school in our state) we do have blackhead in our state, but it is mainly where chickens and turkeys have been. he said I have little chance of having it since there have been no chickens or turkeys for at least 30 yrs. He said you have to break the life cycle. He also said there was no cure once the disease was advanced.I
