Royal palm turkey gasping, sneezing need help!

It might have coccidiosis too, but watery white stool can mean many things, and I think it has a respiratory infection.

I gave him some Corid powder, the correct amount and after 24 hours he started to stand up, and act more awake.. but he's still gasping (less frequently) and laying down all the time. I tried to contact a vet, but no one does practices on poultry (the closest would be 2 hours away.) I brought some tube feeding syringes and I checked inside the throat of the sick turkey, and I could not find his stomach. It's just one enlarged throat.. I can try to provide pictures soon.

How much does it weigh?

Please do not try to tube feed until you know how much it weighs. Do you have a food scale that you can weigh it on?

Birds, like many animals, also need direct sunlight to make vitamin D3. D3 is an essential vitamin for a strong immune system. I know it might not be of any help in this situation, but it can't hurt either to make sure your birds all get some access to direct sunlight if possible.
