    Baby turkey not eating

    We left the baby out with the hen for a while but she seemed to get annoyed with the baby and ignored it, she pecked at it twice as well.. unsure how to move forward just trying to get it to eat

    Baby turkey not eating

    Pickles was the bully! So my other drakes (puddles) and one of my girls (Mabel) were the bloody ones. I seperated Mabel and Puddles so they could heal without chance of getting picked on. Pickles is still with the flock

    Duck refusing go join the flock?

    Alright! I think I'm going to put Pickles (the bully) in a seperate area with one of "his" girls. Hoping that after Pickles leaves my elder drake will become more comfortable to join the flock, I will post an update in a few days!

    Duck refusing go join the flock?
