Can any of you tell me what I've got going on here? It's a growth on my turkey's head. When I got him back about a month ago it was about quarter sized and looked scabby, kind of like a wound from sparring. It's on the back of his head, and he normally struts around and seems happy when I'm around him so I haven't really paid it much attention. Well today he bent down to drink some water while I was by him and the growth has gotten large, I'd say golf ball sized, looks infected, and is really scabby. I think he feels bad too because he is on the floor of the coop tonight, but he normally roosts on the pole. Have any of you seen anything like this before? And what should I do for it?

I have a friend who is interested in finding a lavender orp roo for her 2 lavendar hens. Anyone know where she can get one? Or some lav orp chicks? She got what she has from a person in Ashland City, but has lost her contact info.

I have buckeye eggs for sale. Good meat and egg layers so great dual purpose. They love free range and not pleased with me since I have them in breeding pens. Could also hatch for someone in late April or May, trying to hatch myself some now.
