I have two female turkey's that are 21 weeks old and about 10 days ago they started to show symptoms of Blackhead disease (just figured this out today), there is also a Tom that is showing possible symptoms. They are scheduled to be butchered in 10 days and they are all eating and drinking a little though one has not walked for over a week (but can stand on own).
My question is whether I should be culling these three and discarding their carcass' or should I butcher them with the rest and eat as normal? My other concern is should I try and get them butchered earlier so the other 7 don't get sick? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
