I guess autocorrect is not my ally. Yes, I definitely meant metronidazole.
Sadly, I lost one of my birds this morning.

To anyone who may stumble upon this thread, please have medications on hand as a precaution. Do not wait until your turkeys show signs of illness. Many locales do not have avian vets or even convenient sources that would carry the needed medication. Having to order online and wait for shipment could be the delay that will cost the lives of your birds. It is terribly devastating to learn this lesson firsthand.
