Our turkey has black (it looks like scabs) on the bottom of his snood. He’s eating and drinking normal, no other obvious issues.

We recently added a hen and I saw her peck there this morning but I’m not sure that’s what caused it. It’s been there awhile and I can’t imagine she’s doing that much damage but I be totally off.

Any idea what this may be?

thanks

In my opinion, it looks like an injury that is healiing. It is to be expected that the hen would peck at it because they normally will peck at something strange. If it was mine, I would just let it be and watch to see what happens.
