I have 2 little bourbon red poults I got from the local feed store. Now of them since I brought it home so I assume before hand as well walks in circles. Initially it wasn't so bad. Now he almost spins in his brooder. They are on high protein starter fees with ACV on their water..a good heat source, no draft I'm beyond puzzled. Any ideas?
 
I've never had turkeys before, but that sure sounds like wry neck. What you should do is go to your local TSC if you have one and pick up something called Poultry Nutri-Drench. It's in a brown and white bottle with a litle dropper. You'll want to give the poult a drop or two orally once or twice a day, and maybe put a little in its water. I've treated a duckling with severe wry neck this way and she made a full recovery. Good luck with the little guy!
