Some quick background, I have two meat turkeys that I kept after last year's Fair, because my kids couldn't stand to see them go somewhere else. Regardless they are about 10 month old, both hens and have gotten along fabulously until recently. The last few days I've noticed one of the hens has picked the other hens neck clean of feathers to the point that she's bleeding. Any idea why she is doing this or how we can make it stop? We have separated them and are trying to nurse the injured one back to health since it's snowing here. Any help is much appreciated.
