Title: Wry necks associated with Mycoplasma meleagridis infection in a backyard flock of turkeys. Author: Cardona CJ, Bickford AA. Journal: Avian Dis; 1993; 37(1):240-3. PubMed ID: 8452503. Abstract: Two 5-week-old bronze turkeys were submitted with crooked necks that could not be straightened. Both birds were serologically and culturally positive for Mycoplasma meleagridis (MM).

This appeared to be a case of MM-associated wry necks.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
