Hello,
I'm new here(registered user) but I have been coming to BackYardChickens very often since I started my backyard chickens and turkeys. The reason I'm posting for the first time is because I'm concern one of my 22 months old turkey hens might be sick.
I noticed that one of my hens started to isolate herself a little bit from her flock. Up until a few days my 2 hens and the tom were hanging around and doing the fighting play, but a few days ago I noticed she started to look down, doesn't want to roost on the trees as the rest and she goes right into their "coop" as soon as it starts to get dark, usually I would be fighting them to get in that coop since all they want is to roost on the big tree by their enclosure.
This morning I noticed something strange and new that I haven't seen before and I have been observing her since she started to behave like that. It was a yellowish stool. She seems to have no lost her appetite, though she is not moving as she used to.
I also should say I keep my turkey flock with my chickens, they don't sleep together but they hangout the entire day.
Anyone has any idea on what could be happening to my girl? and if so what's could be the solution?
Thank you!
