But her entire backside under...

    Royal Palm Turkey is sick -lethargic, sitting down slightly wheezing

    Great idea, thank you. In Norco, it's very horse and livestock oriented but I'm not that familiar with avian vets. We did have our regular vet do a float test of a previous sick chicken and she ended up being fine, not pests or parasites. So maybe I'll do that again. Thank you!

    Royal Palm Turkey is sick -lethargic, sitting down slightly wheezing

    Norco, CA. We sent some goat blood work to US Davis recently to determine if she was healthy since she was rescued from a local community shelter. Should I send my turkey's poo samples there? Is that the reason for your inquiry? I really appreciate everyone's help.

    Thanks for asking but no, still wheezing, was sitting down this morning while her siblings were off eating and trying to figure the CA rain out. (not a usual thing for us).

    Royal Palm Turkey is sick -lethargic, sitting down slightly wheezing

    No, I looked for the blackhead bumps. She has black fur/feathers on the top of her head along with the white feathers. Her nose this morning didn't have any crusties and she was trying to scratch in their big dust bath area.

    Yes, there are 37 chickens in the enclosure with her. It's an open air area about 1,000 sq ft. She and her 2 other RPT sisters have their own sleeping and rooster area though.
