Abstract
Turkey poults develop a spastic type of cervical paralysis on rations that are severely deficient in vitamin Bc, but which contain reasonable amounts of all other required vitamins. The poults which were examined had a lower red cell volume than is normal but none were markedly anemic. Remission of the symptoms was obtained by the administration of crystalline vitamin Bc. Some of the commonly used feedstuffs are poor sources of vitamin Bc.Keywords
