dead turkeys?

[mayrooni]

this is my first go around with turkeys. i have 3 that are about 12 weeks old. last week i had one that randomly died. i *thought* i saw green poop in the pen. today, i found another dead and it clearly had green poop. i havent noticed any other signs. thoughts on this? i have other turkeys that are housed with them that are younger.

Sorry about your losses.

Would be best to have a necropsy done by a lab, or you could do one yourself. Keep a very close eye on all the others because there is a very good chance you're going to lose more if you don't figure out what the three died of.

Were your turkeys healthy and just died overnight? or did they show some type of illness.

First post said green poop, and green poop is a sign of illness .
