1. Toxicity of 2-hydrazinoethanol was investigated in turkey poults 2-6 weeks posthatch. 2. Significant depression of body wt was evident at concentrations of the drug as low as 10 ppm. 3. Severe anorexia closely paralleled a highly significant decrease in water intake. 4. A significant increase in the ratio of granulocytes to agranulocytes was seen in poults fed the drug at a dose of 50 ppm. 5. Under the conditions of this experiment, none of the tissues sampled exhibited pathologic changes consistent with drug injury.
