I’ve had a couple turkey poults die (this is my first year hatching them from our turkeys), and a few times I thought I might be able to save the poult if I knew what would help. We’ve hatched 54 so far. Baby I wish to treat now is one I confiscated from mamma turkey who has a terribly dirty nest and has broken many eggs up there. I got two poults out,surprised she actually hatched any. One was still half in egg. When I got it out, it was like half the inside was a stinky white liquid. Bird seems to have something respiratory and/or neurological. I don’t know if it’s going to make it. I’d like to know what to do better for future birds.
 
We usually hatch in our incubator, but let her have her fun after we already hatched so many. I would just like some info on antibiotic doses for chicks.
