Effect of three routes of spectinomycin injection in neonatal turkeys with mixed bacterial contamination.
Neonatal poults diagnosed to have mixed bacterial contamination were injected with spectinomycin in one of three different routes: yolk sac, intramuscularly, or subcutaneously. An additional group was uninjected controls. Yolk sac injections, but not other routes, resulted in significantly heavier birds.
