I am brand new to turkeys. Got a 1.5 years old Wild Eastern tom last week, and he is settling in to his run nicely. Brought home a 3 year old Heritage Bronze hen yesterday to keep him company, and he immediately postured up on her (puffed his feathers out, turned colors I hadn't seen before, and stood over her). He then started pecking the mess out of her. He proceeded to follow her around the enclosure pecking and yanking at her head and neck. Is this normal, or is he telling this hen to get out of his territory? I don't want my tom to be lonely, but I don't want this poor hen to be pecked bloody under my watch.
Thanks
