    Turkey hens loved each other until baby came along!

    Blimey, I know some keep theirs for food but mine are like my dogs to me!! LOL. I love them and would hate to see them get hurt. One of the girls is younger and bigger so I would imagine she will "win" but Buster is still trying to protect her baby so has reason to fight?? Maybe?? Well thank you...

    Turkey hens loved each other until baby came along!

    Thanks for the quick reply. Will they hurt each other or shall I let them get on with it?? I am so worried, they live in my back garden so don't have as much room as a bird on a farm.

    Turkey hens loved each other until baby came along!

    My 2 turkey hens keep displaying and attacking each other. They did get along until one hatched an egg. The poult is 2 months old now so I keep trying to re introduce the adults but they hate each other. Is it just because of the baby because they did used to get along fine?? Thank you!!!

    My turkey will not get off her empty nest

    I did try blocking her from her nest but she just settled somewhere else! She is very stubborn, I am worried about her mental health as well as her losing condition. I even loced her outside for a few hours and she just started nesting in some soil. LOL.

    My turkey will not get off her empty nest

    Help, my turkey will not get of her nest. I have to physically remove her so she will eat and drink. She is starting to loose condition and looks terrible.
