    Random White Female (We think)

    So. Tonight, right at dusk, we had a solo white (we believe a female) Turkey showed up on our gravel driveway. Thing is, we are hidden, at least 100 yards from the main road. My son, curious, went out to see why my dog was going out of his mind. Sure enough, this Turkey is just standing there...

    Turkey Tom eye discharge white

    Hello everyone, I have some concerns, I have a one year old Tom. For some reason I’ve just notice his eye has a white discharge and Idk what it is nor how to clean it. Is it bacterial or viral or just eye boogers. If so, the flock doesn’t have any of those issues just him. Can anyone help me...

    Questions about fertile Turkey eggs.

    My ladies have been laying well, and I have around 17 fertile (I’ve seen the Tom mate both of ‘em) eggs. Here’s the thing, it gets down to 40F here at night. Is that cold enough to cause issues for the eggs? One of my hens sat on them one night, but other than that they’ve been on their own. I...

    Angel wing in turkey poult?

    First time turkey mom! I was curious if this is angel wing or a normal part of growing? I was told it was angel wing and then told turkeys don't get angel wing and it was normal. I feed the gamebird starter which is 30% protein, so seeing angel wing is caused by high protein diet I need to know...

They are 8 months old the Tom is around 75-80 pounds the hen is around 30-45 pounds. My question and worry is that I may...

    Hello! I guess I have two male turkeys. Lol so I have them in the same area with about 20 chicken hens and 1 Rooster. Do you think I will have any issues? The coop is 10x10 with lots of roosting bars. The “run” is a fenced in area that’s about 60 feet by 80 feet. Do you think I’ll have...

    What’s the chance of toms coexisting?

    I am hoping to buy a new Tom for breeding season and rehome the current one, as he didn’t produce the desired color. However, getting a new Tom could be a problem because of my precious little man who broke his leg. Him and the current Tom (his father) strut together, working together to impress...

    Help! Turkey is ill!

    My Turkey chick (nearly 2 months old) has diarrhea and is looking very dopey (not wanting to move around with the flock), as well as keeping its head very close to its body. It has no spots/sores on it, and is not stargazing. I have separated it from the rest of my turkeys and am keeping it in a...

    Tom or Hen

    I have these 2 poults, the first I’ve bred, and I believe it to be a pair. The Tom gobbles and struts, so definitely a little man. They were both hatched on august 18th. The hen also struts, but she had 6 older brothers, so I’m not surprised. I am only posting him on here for comparison, mama...

    What is the survival rate of Turkey poults with a first time momma Turkey

    Hi, I might sound stupid, I know this is a question I should be able to google, but I couldn’t find any answers. No matter what search variable I used, nothing. So, what would the odds of 8/8 poults surviving with a first time momma? My girl recently hatched her poults and so far (the first ones...

    Helping turkey with bumble foot

    Hi everyone, my turkey has bumble foot and I have done a lot of research on how to get rid of it but there's one thing I'm not sure of. All of the videos of people removing the scab and dressing the wound are done to a chicken, who is on its back. My turkey is way too big to be able to lay on...
