Introducing turkey back to the flock

[Laz]

I have five turkeys. One of them was sick, so I separated him. It’s feeling much better now, but when I tried to put him back in to the pen with the other turkeys, they all attacked him. What’s the best way to re-introduce him to the flock?

Just stand back and watch. Try not to interfere too much. It has to reestablish itself in the pecking order. The more you interfere the longer the process will take.
