I'm glad to hear the clearish stuff is normal. Honestly, it's totally dry 99% of the time. Only when she rips off the scab and exposes the pinkish skin underneath it gets a little moist. I had only considered Aspirin because I have a bucket of the stuff you mix in poultry water and I was...

Thanks Lauren! I did wash it. When it was first healing I had used diluted betadine, the same as a vet had instructed me for another turkey that was injured (she was wearing a jacket, but the inexperienced tom slipped FORWARD and sliced her in front of the jacket.) That turkey is totally...

Okay, so I have a turkey that got a wound on the side of her neck-shoulder awhile ago, but she has been obsessively picking at it and I can't get it to heal all the way. I'll get one part to heal and she'll dig at another spot. Of course now she's molting and it appears to be making her itchy...

Does anyone know where I can find show quality buff orpingtons? It’s winter right now so I want to hold off until spring, but after googling it and can’t find anyone!

Yeah, I've had Bourbon Reds for a few years now and I like watching the adult feathers come in. Hopefully these ones will be more striking. Took me awhile to figure out how to create an album, but here are the babies from this year.
