Turkey chicks with funny wings

[Beccalikesbirds]

I have two of my baby fair turkeys whos bottom wing feathers are popping out on only one side (both the same side) and I'm worried it will ruin my chance to market them at fair if I don't find a way to correct it. Does anyone have any tips or ideas?

That's normal. It will correct itself. Next the wings will be heavy, and they may have troubles holding them up for a bit. All is normal. Also young turkeys are called poults in case you didn't know.

Okay thank you very much, I was just worried because I had a duckling with something like this a little while back and his one wing still sticks out funny.

In ducks there's a thing called angel wing where the outer bones twist. In poults and chicks it's just feathers coming in.

Okay, that's a good thing to know. Thank you.
