I noticed today one of my turkeys looks sick. Shes not really doing too much and shes pooping a really yellow poop. This is my first time having turkeys. I raise other poultry but I've never had a bird poop yellow. Shes about 3-4 months old

Can you get her to a vet ASAP? It looks like she has blackheads, and to treat blackheads (histomoniasis) you need metronidazole and enrofloxacin. If you don't start treatment today she will probably die. :hugs
 
I have an all in one medicine powder, it has amprolium, Ronidazol, levamisole, tylenol and probiotics in it. Could any of those help treat it?

If that is all you have, try it, but your turkey needs something like enrofloxacin to treat the probably gram-negative bacteria too. The product you have does not treat gram-negative bacteria.

Oh, and your product probably does not have Tylenol, it's probably tylosin.
 
There is no way to sugar coat this... If this turkey is a pet, I suggest you get it to a vet asap because this disease kills quickly.
 
I had ment to type 'tylan'but my phone autocorrected it.
I'm trying to call some vets around to see if they will sell me the medicine
 
Took it to a vet, they gave her oxytetracyline. Vet said there really nothing else to give her
