So, my husband brought home two baby turkeys last night. I pulled what I thought was crusted poop, but my husband explained it was the umbilical cord. The baby bled quite a bit, and I feel horrible. My husband put pressure on it and stopped the bleeding. Nothing came out other than what I have now learned is the string. No intestines or anything like that. The bird is acting fine. Chirping, drinking, eating, walking, climbing. I'm just still worried I did some permanent damage. Does anyone have any insight on this? We have cleaned the area and put neosporin on it to try to prevent infection. I think it looks like a big hole on him now, but my husband says it's actually not that bad. Idk. I've never raised turkeys. We have geese, chickens, ducks, and guineas. I honestly did not know until this happened that there even was an umbilical cord for baby chicks.
