HELP! My turkey has a broken talon that is bleeding what should I do

You'll want to put some peroxide on it, then put flour on it.

Corn starch or styptic powder works great too. I keep the styptic for my pups.

 

[Trucker19]

that's also a good idea

Thank you very much it stopped bleeding and it appears to be broken off im not sure if I should try to remove the small pieces, will it grow back? Any advise would be appreciated

I don't think you need to remove the small pieces, But the talon will grow back.

I saw him a few minutes ago picking at it and holding his foot up I hope its ok,... it looks a little swollen

To prevent infection put a squirt of peroxide an than blue kote.
