I have a bourbon red and 2 BBB. Recently they have been opening their mouth wide kinda like they're yawning and extending their necks as they do it. Another thing i noticed was how much they are sneezing!! It seems like they do it a lot more than they should be.. but their eyes are not watery and their faces arent swollen or anything. Also i see a reddish substance in their poop. I'm not sure if it's blood or something else. The poop is either diarrhea or extremley watery. None of them act sick. They're all very energetic and look good. So I'm not sure what's going on. I purchased corid, diatomaceous earth and probiotics. This has been going on for at least a week if not 2. I bought what i think i need but if anyone has had the same experience please let me know what i need to do and what was causing it. I dont want to lose my turkeys i love them a lot.
 
Add some applesider vinegar into their water and hopefully they feel better. Are they all active though? I had the same problem but it was with my chicken, she was keep yawning and unfortunately passed away but she had another problem.

Yes they are very active and playful, but I can hear them breathing they sound stuffed up. I will add some ACV in their water right now! And I'm sorry about your hen:(
 
Thank you for your sympathy. ACV is very good, but after doing some searching adding electrolytes into the water is also very good, might be better than ACV actually. You can find
electrolytes at your local feed store, like Tractor Supply.Since they are active there is nothing to worry about. This happens with many poultry birds. I hope they feel better!
