i have a baby turkey. she is only a few weeks old and we got her with what we thought to be a prolapse and we bathed her and everything started to go down and she was able to poop. but now its happened again her butt is all swollen and looks prolapsed again. i really love her and i don’t want her to die. what should i do? is there something to feed her to help her?

Make sure the poult has the appropriate sized grit available.

How's your baby turkeys doing?

hello!! there was a HUGE like human sized poop i assume because there was something blocking her butt while she tried to poop but we soaked her in warm water to try and soften it up. and then we slowly pushed it out *images of her butt after the bath CW: its really graphic*
we are hoping it shrinks down with the help of vetericyn and maybe hemorrhoid cream

Pour little girl. I'm so happy you haven't gave up on her. Hopefully your hard work will payoff.
 
How's your little girl doing?
hi!! so we cant afford the x rays as of now and since the big poop we got out she seems to be getting alot more out. we switched her food and started putting electrolytes in her and the baby chick she lives with water. her butt seems to be going back to normal, definitely smaller now.
