Hi everyone I’m new here. I normally rescue dogs, cats, rabbits, parrots etc. and this is my first time taking in poultry.

I took in a young Turkey and a peachick last month both with a splayed leg.

I was hoping to find out more about them on here but I really want to know their gender. As I have also taken in a rooster last week. I’m not sure if it’s going to cause any aggression issues between them just in case one of them is a male.

I apologize if my photos are a bit blurry.

I really hope someone can give me some insight as to what their genders might be and what type of breed they are.

Thank you so much in advance!!!

That isn't splayed leg. Treating it as splayed leg will not cure it. It is perosis caused by poor diet and possibly genetic tendency.

Do a search in the Emergencies forum for slipped tendon. The treatment is the same whether it is a chicken or a turkey.

It's too young to sex from photos.

Personally, I would cull it.
