    All the turkeys are currently taking metronidazole that was given to me by the vet. I thought I said that, but I may have left it out. I'm really tired!!! If i can never get rid of it, does that mean I need to just kill my turkeys and never have any? Can I keep my chickens? If i have baby...

When I got home I had a turkey that was BARELY acting a little lathargic, not something I would have noticed had I not been really looking. So I decided to watch him for a while as I couldn't decide...

    Very sick 3 and half mo turkey!! what do I do?

    I'm not home, when I get home I will check the name of the medicine. casportpony, I know from my homework today that the lungs do not indicate blackhead ... this makes me question the diagnosis. for those that are experienced, how long after presenting with symptoms does it take before death...
