I'll move the heat lamp from the corner to the middle where I put the divider, that way they can share it and still have room to move away.

Update: So I walked in to check on my birds, and noticed one of the smaller bantams looking up at the turkeys vent area and peck at it. Now granted I only saw it make 1 peck, and it didn't look like it pecked directly at the vent, but rather one of the few remaining feathers, or a droplet of...

well I just gave him another very warm bath and belly message. he made a little poop in the tub, but nothing impressive. Also I noticed that right where I think his breastbone stops between the legs, there seems to be a large lump that feels rather hard. well pretty much the whole thing feels...

Cool. Thanks for your help so far. Was hoping for a little more specific/pinpoint info, but this doesn't seem to be a very common thing or something. I'll keep updating on how things go with Turk.

ok. I can do all except the yogurt, unless you think that yoplaid light with aspartame is ok. I do replace the water at least twice a day. and I'll keep giving him warm baths. So the butt--hole is called "vent"??? I was trying to google some terminology and anatomy, and as of a few minutes...

is what hanging out? "holding".....as in....he doesn't want to poop, or as in he's constipated??? He hung out with me for about 1/2-1hour earlier and while I was posting those pics, and the whole time was just sleeping on my lap. then we went for a walk into the kitchen where I was going to...

in this picture his butt is a little wet like he's oozing some white poop or something from his butt. the part that looks kinda red in the pic is just from the camera. I looked again after I took the pic, and there is nothing red or irritated looking, other than the purple swollen part of his...

There is some yoplait light in the fridge, but I don't eat it because it has "Aspartame" in it. He still seems swollen this morning, so I gave him another very warm bath which seemed to make him squeeze out another 2 large (i think) poops. Not sure if it's just coincidence or if maybe I'm...

I guess one of the other birds could be, I'd have to watch a little closer. but I don't see anything like blood or scars or anything that would hint at another bird pecking at it's butt.

Hi. Figured I'd bump this thread incase somebody hasn't seen it. Really hoping that somebody can help me before little Turk dies. I also wanted to update on something I tried last night. Not know anything about birds, the only thing I could think of in that area was that maybe Turk was...

Hi. New here and new to chicken and turkeys. We got our first chicken, 2 ducks and 1 turkey 3 weeks ago. So far we've had no problems, other than a couple baby chickens that had poop stuck to their butt, which I cleaned off after reading about it on this site. Today I noticed that my little...
