Hi wondering if anyone has any insight or could help. I have a 6 week old turkey poult that was thriving until week 5. She started to get very clumsy I had assumed it was because of her new feathers coming in. By the third day of week 5 she was unable to walk, flipping over, tucking her head and paddling her legs every time she tried to walk. She is now 6 week and 3 days old (it’s exactly one week since this started) and she is still unable to stay upright. She is eating and drinking and wants to be active but just stumbles around like she is drunk still. She is able to get back on her feet with out help but not able to walk far without falling over. This is our first and only Turkey so I have no experience. Any suggestions?
