I am sooooo confused

Me too. I thought since it was a national program it would be pretty similar state to state but PA seems so much more involved than here.

I am not a Vet but at this stage, not knowing what caused it, I would go for a broad spectrum antibiotic such as a sulfa based drug. Dimethox is my "go to" drug.

Sulmet is another.

It may be viral, In which case nothing will work, but Sulfa drugs will hit most things.

Took the chick in. Talked to the vet. She started going through everything. She asked. Do u have turkeys with them. I said yes. She said that's it. She just went through it herself and just finished a class two weeks ago on it. She lost a bunch of chicks too and didn't know why. She called it something. I'm adding a capful of bleach to everything and spraying everything down With bleach and selling the turkey poults.

It's not coccidiosis. I can send one off to the state for $150 bucks. What else do I treat for. I'm getting ready to mix probiotic, vet rx, electrolytes and pour the medicated feed to them. I have another dead one.

it must be so hard to be loosing chicks and not know why

what do the turkeys do to the chicks

It's something they give them. She named it. I didn't pay a lot of attention to the name. It runs in a cycle. They could be fine together for months. She's been through what I'm going through. She hatched turkeys with chickens.

I dosed the water and removed the turkeys and washed everything down with bleach water.
