    Help, turkey leg or hip injury

    Hello, one of my gobblers has had a bit of a limp for the past year or so but it didn't seem to bother him too much. After a recent run in with our other male he has a very pronounced limp that seems very painful. Not sure what to do? I will try to post a video.

    Hi all! This is a very strange problem for me, but so far I haven't been able to find any online help for it so I figured I'd ask my fellow chicken lovers.
