    URGENT: Hatched chick that can’t walk

    I hatched out my first batch of turkey poults, and I’m very concerned for the first hatched. She can’t walk right or control her legs, and I’m not sure how to help.

    Strange bump on Turkeys head

    I recently noticed a strange growth on both of my Turkey tom’s heads, they are hard and callous and don’t want to come off. They are acting totally normal and eating well, just wondering if anyone knows what it is and if I should be concerned? None of my hens are infected with them.

    I just received a shipment of baby peafowl from cackle hatchery, and one of the little chicks appears to have a broken toe or hurt toe. It doesn’t bend properly and just remains curled in when it walks on it. What should I do?

    How to help hens recover from mites

    Recently I discovered my flock was suffering from mites and lice, and one of the hens was so weak she can’t sit up. She’s still able to eat and drink fine, she just couldn’t get enough strength to make her legs work. I’ve read about it and I’m guessing she’s anemic. I’ve since cleaned the...
