Turkeys should be vaccinated with Fowl Pox vaccine at 3 to 4 weeks of age, or as soon as the wing web is defined enough to identify the main vein running through its centre. Our personnel would be happy to advise you on the correct execution of this vaccination procedure should you require assistance.

 Anflox - Antibiotic administered at 2 ml per gallon of drinking water for the 1st 3 days of brooding. Can be substituted with Neochlor for smaller volume of chicks.
 Vitalyte Plus - Vitamin mix, add 1 package to 100 gallons of water or ¼ teaspoon to a one gallon bottle. Vitalyte Plus can be mixed with Anflox, i.e. applied in the same drinking water. Use for the 1st 5 days of brooding, then again prior to any change of feed type.
 Vitamin E - Not always necessary, however if Vitamin E deficiency has been noticed in other chicks prior to placement of day old broilers, apply 3 oz (100 ml) of vitamin E liquid to 128 gallons of drinking water. (1 teaspoon to 5 gallons).
