Mean turkey

[maziechicken02]

Hi I have a midget white turkey and a hen for him and I have lots of chickens and a rooster in the coop with them and the turkey keeps attacking us! He hangs his wing down like he wants to mate with us and does the mating purr and he chases us and we have to bring something to protect us if we go out there and we've tried filing a spray bottle with water and vinegar and squrting it at him but it doesn't work please help!

With my rooster, I would catch him and cuddle him. Haha! It did work. You can also try just chasing him around and scaring him for a bit. I hope it goes well for you.

Maybe he has a death wish and just wants Thanksgiving to come very early this year. I don't really know anything about turkeys except they are delicious. I know that roosters aggressive to people generally end up on the dinner plate, or swimming with noodles in soup.
