Lame 2 week old turkey poult with swollen throat

[MysteryChicken]

We have like kinda big syringes we’ve used for force feeding liquid food before, we just squirt a little at a time. Would that be okay?

They maybe too big, but I guess you can try to dribble a small amount in it's mouth at a time.

Just be dure it doesn't go down the windpipe? He already has a blockage there. Make sure he swallows it normally?

He seems to just cough up and spit out the water. He keeps opening his mouth and stretching his neck poor guy keeps tryna climb on my lap for cuddles. Is there supposed to be cloudy liquid/mucusy stuff at the back of his throat? Im not sure if thats normal

I put a few drops in and he gurgles it instead of swallowing

He threw up everything and has been pooping water, he opens his mouth a lot at it weirdly looks like his food/wind pipe is stuck out and it looks swollen from that. When he opens his mouth everything looks empty but comparing to the other turkeys its like a tense hard tube through his throat?? Is it usually supposed to be soft or am i getting it wrong its just stuck out so oddly
