You sure do have a lot of peafowl!

Do any of you know what causes this type of swelling?

What kind? Turkeys?

I have Rhode Island White and Barred Hollands in there now.

Kathy as far as the chick, I'd open it up to see. Has to be some kind of infection in my mind, but don't really have a clue.

How many of each?

I did open it up and it appeared to be just swollen muscles, no sign of infection. Had some live chicks with it too and the swelling went away after a few days. Interestingly, those with the fat necks also had larger than normal bellies.

How many of each?

I have 30 RIW and 35 BH showing good development. The veining is much more pronounced on Day 8/9... I might start being a day or two late all of the time going forward.
