Can apple seeds kill a turkey?

[Treefolk]

Yesterday the turkeys and chickens were given apples off of a friends tree. Today one of my toms is sitting with his eyes closed, not panting (the other 3 are, its hot) and had a bowl movement that was pure white with mucus and what looks like hints or blood or maybe red apple skin. He just sits, did not eat during feeding and didn't not want to leave the enclosure in the morning.

Any advice is greatly appreciated, as time seems to be of the utmost importance.

Mine eat apples all the time so i doubt it would be from the apple seed. Maybe he has heat stress.

Apple seeds only contain tiny amounts of cyanide, so he would have to eat a LOT of apples to have a problem (my chickens eat apples all the time with no ill effects). I would be more worried about what your friend might have sprayed the apple tree with...... Does he/she use pesticides? Were the apples washed?
I hope your turkey is OK

Talked to a vet, seems like its coccidiosis and is being treated. His feces has gotten solid, but he still isn't eating, still drinking. Funny 100% organic, 0 drugs up till this point.

Apple seeds don't kill chickens, but they can cause numerous health problems, such as vomiting and diarrhea.
as I know it could poison human a little not chicken. and apple seed could kill human easily in american novels.
