17 hatched, 2 working their way out. Had 2 die mid-hatch. Awaiting 5 eggs to hatch or not.

Will look into the coolerbator link, thanks!

Nice weather here until mid-week when we get another round of severe weather. Wind, tornadoes, excessive rain...feels like ground hog day!
Well, we know if the power goes out again, the girls can provide the neighborhood entertainment .

Got my hands on him and darned if you weren't absolutely right. It's air! And no crunch like when there was a fight and air got pushed under the skin during the fight, but it's all one big bubble!
I'll go ahead and Lance it in the morning, I don't have any supplies for that here, and the vets will get a real kick out of seeing this. There will be laughter, I'm sure, but I'll get him in.
Lol.

Make “Mom” come out and do it...lol

Lol she's gone until Thursday. The airhead might explode! Lololol he just looks so silly, and he isn't acting like he's in pain, just he's super annoyed that his face is getting in his way...

The veterinarian who boards at my house suggested if it doesn't get worse, I should leave it alone and he will reabsorb the air. She's worried about possible infection, because we aren't sure what caused the air to leak into his neck in the first place. We gave him a good feel, he's got crunchy spots around under his wings, the keel, around the back sides on his carnucles, the air has leaked to various layers all over his body. When I caught him, some air squirted out of his eyes!

Ablyn also made a serious pest of himself. He absolutely adored her shoes, and thought the farrier squatting down to shoe the horses was an open invite. He tap danced for the lady doctor, she thought he was a weirdo. He got pushed away from the farrier a few times and sulked in the periphery.

Wonder what made him crunchy. Poor guy.
Ablyn! Don't ya just love "weirdo" turkeys? They are the best!!

I remember one of Ralphies turkeys being smitten by a lady vet. Think it was JJ.

Shoes...Annie is so into shoes! And painted toenails with sparkly sandals!
