I bought 3 /5 week old turkey poults 9 days ago, After 4 days one of the little girls showed symptoms of clear discharge from nostrils took her to the vet. I do not think the vet knew about fragile turkey babies gave me nothing. Saw another person who said to give her and by now the other 2 had symptoms oxmymav b in a syringe twice a day. Got worse yesterday now commenced on Tylan 50 oral drops Bd. Anymore suggestions the original little one her face was swolllen yesterday one side has now gone down more tday.Thanks

@casportpony any hints?

Sorry, I am no help. :hugs
 
So sorry they are sick. :hugs You could try oral Tylan 50. Dose is 0.3 ml per pound orally 4 times a day. If they are pets, ask the vet for Baytril.

Thanks so much I think they would only be 1/2 kilo I live in Australia. I only got the Tylan off Ebay and imported here. Yes I will have to go to the vet tomorrow
 
Correction! The turkey dose is slightly higher!
Turkey dose is 0.3 ml per pound four times a day.
Chicken dose is 0.25 ml per pound for times a day
