Turkey death

[Kacyrichardson]

Hello, I am new to this website and new chicken and turkey owner. My gobbler hasn’t been acting right for about a week, not strutting, gobbling or eating and today I found him dead.. he had developed almost like a tumor on his head it felt bony and fatty at the same time. Has anyone else seen this? I know a lot of people Tell me birds just die for no reason I just hope there wasn’t a disease that would pass along to my others. The other two turkey hens are acting fine!

Sorry to hear about your turkey… Can you post photographs? It may assist you in getting an answer.
