I did. Two of my three poults did not make it. :/ Trying to learn as much as possible. Also thought it would be okay to ask OP if hers is doing better. Apparently that was a no no, though since OP hasn’t been on BYC in three weeks. Kinda strange response I got.
Anyway, really bummed about losing those two baby turks and hope to prevent that as much as possible in the future. I tried quite a bit. Egg yolk with mashed up starter feed and oregano oil in a syringe, chopped up live worms and fed that to them, sugar water in a syringe, etc.
Don’t worry, not a No No! But something that can help you if you search for an answer and can only find older threads for it:
Click on the user’s name, and it will show you how long they have been a member, and how many posts they have made. Then click on their name again and you will come to this page:
Click on the word “find” and you will get a drop-down (or drop-up) box in which you can choose either all their content or just the threads they started.
Then you can scroll their threads to see if they ever made a new thread about their turkey (many people don’t continue one thread, they start new ones) or since they only have 19 total posts, you can scroll all their content easily. Doing that, you see that this poster only comes on BYC when they have a problem, and they never/rarely come back later to update.
I only go to this trouble if I’m super curious to see if they ever posted more about the situation. Or if the things they post are very interesting to me, I might do all this to find out what other interesting things they may have written. I have gone down several interesting rabbit trails this way.
Some people are very interesting to follow.
Anyway, I’m sorry about your turkeys. You are in good hands now with
@casportpony . She gives very good health advice.
