My poor turkey

[Rystall]

Can anyone tell me what is happening to my turkey? This brood breasted white is suppose to be thanksgiving dinner. If it has to get antibiotic that is fine and it will be a pet (or still eaten if that's ok). It's eye keeps blowing snot bubbles too.

MG (CRD) or mycoplasmais a common respiratory disease in all poultry. It is contagious to all other poultry, and can make carriers of the whole flock for life. Tylan 200 injectable can be given by mouth or by injection into the breast muscle once or twice a day for 3-5 days. Dosage is 1/4 ml per pound of weight. Tylan 50 may also be used orally at 1ml per pound, but since turkeys weigh more than chickens, the Tylan 200 is more economical. Tylan also comes in powder form for use in the water.
Duramycin 10 and oxytetracycline, Gallimycin are also frequently used to treat symptoms. Most of those drugs have a withdrawal time for meat consumption between 7 and 21 days, depending on which is used. Here is a good link about MG:

I was thinking it was mycoplasma. I have duramycin 10 and I will add it to my turkey's water. Should I give it to my whole flock? I have chickens, ducks and quail too. What about my chicks and poults? Thank you.

I usually don't recommend giving antibiotics unless any of the others symptoms. It would be good to separate her in a pen as far away as possible, so that the infection is not spread, and then you can only medicate her.
