Would anyone happen to know the sex of these turkeys they are a little under 3 months old. Thank you much!
The 2 pictures with the brighter head is one, and the 2 other pics is of the other.
Hello,
I bought a baby turkey a few months back and he has grown way too big for my small backyard. I had initially intended on having him for Thanksgiving but now I cannot see myself doing that. Free if you can come pick him up (I think it's a Tom)

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...
I see everyone else has done this soooo, here I am.
We have a big flock of golden comets, black sex links, rhode island red, etc., and they are friendly birds.
We currently have 21 hens and 8-9 roosters (we're trying to fix that problem of too many roosters)

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...
My momma Turkey hen who just hatched out poults has been acting normal, but just today I noticed her snood is all swollen and shiny. I couldn’t get a good side profile picture, but it’s definitely swollen and abnormally shiny. It doesn’t seem to bother her at all, she acts normal. Is it...
I have approximately 20 young adult and 2 month old recessive blue Narragansett Turkeys for sale. I might be able to sex the older juveniles.
No shipping.
Bird free range during the day as a mixed flock with chickens and ducks.
These are heritage turkeys, they reproduce naturally hatch and...
I have a broody Turkey who has eggs due to hatch any day now, she’s been sitting for 21+ days, the eggs are hers, and I gave them to her at roughly 5-7 days into incubation. One has internally pipped yesterday, but no pip yet. She’s been a great broody, but I have my worries about her still...
I have a poult with a very hard crop, he’s about a week old, had to have a bit of assistance due to his mother breaking his egg tooth and beak tip off, but still pushed out of the egg on his own. Has been doing great despite being stunted and a bit… odd looking.
He poops normally and seems full...
I have had 5 poults hatch out so far, the first 4 were all stereotypical blacks, I think they will be Rusty blacks, but the 5th one is different.
It is black, but has a different pattern.
First picture is the baby, 2nd is what all the others look like, and last ones are parents. Mom is an...
Ok, this lil guy is about a week old and he seems great no problems at all, but his toe tip is dark grey and looks dead. He doesn’t seem in pain, but It’s not just coloration. I think he had it since hatch, but I just thought it was natural color then, seeing as he has black and pink legs.
Hey there! I was wondering what I could give to my Turkey's as treats,
I usually do something like blueberry, or maybe some bananas,
But I've been wanting to give them something different to mix it up a bit, and I was wondering what some other people Like to give to theirs as treats!?
Last week I noticed one of our male pet turkeys was hiding in the back of his pen. When checking on him I quickly realized our other male turkey (that have always gotten along) was trying to attack him. So we moved him. Once moved we noticed he had mites, we treated & thought that was the issue...
So this morning my mom woke up to a surprise in her flock. A wild turkey was foraging with her birds. She resides in NJ and has a couple of birds of her own (including one turkey hen). Though turkeys are not that uncommon where she lives, we don't know where the bird came from. She allows my mom...
Can someone help me please!!! My sweet baby has been broody for some time now. I was regularly collecting eggs and urging her to get out and get food and water as much as I could, and I did not notice this spot until tonight. I feel absolutely awful:( what could have caused this?! She hasn't...
Hi,
We live in montana and expect predators. New to raising turkeys. Early am something ripped head off turkey and left it with the body. Have two 2 puncture holes in another turkey by it's wing...marks are about 2 inches apart. Second one is alive. I have pictures but don't know if or how to...
I have a poult who has no egg tooth, but it’s pip was enlarged by its mother, who is also the cause if the missing egg tooth, and it wants freedom from the shell. I was going to let it do that, but then I saw a decent amount of un absorbed yolk still in the egg. How do I stop it from hatching to...
I was candling for internal pips in a Turkey egg on day 27, then the egg slipped out of my hand and fell 4 inches onto my desk. At first I thought it was ok and then I felt these cracks on the pointy end, membrane is fine, but the chick hadn’t pipped internally yet.
It’s still showing movement...
I have a baby Turkey with no egg tooth, it pipped and lost the egg tooth at some point. Can it finish hatching, it has a relatively large pip. Definitely missing egg tooth. I think the hen I had it under had something to do with that, but it’s in the incubator and seems fine now.
Edit: here’s...
