Turkey with skin problems

[jonno karoo]

Hi all
Harold, our farmyard turkey has swollen eyelids, and his goblet and feed are swollen and hard too...
Any ideas?
Thanks
Jonno

That looks painful! I've never raised turkeys before but if you ask over on the turkey forum, I bet someone there could help you out:

Good luck, hope he's ok.

Hi

Oh wow that does look painful for Harold! I'm afraid I'm not a turkey person but the link that NorthFLChick left for you is a great place to ask all your turkey questions. I'm sure the turkey keepers there will be able to help you.

Wishing you the very best of luck with Harold, I hope you are able to get him well again soon

I wonder if that is what they called "Blackhead disease," in turkeys. You may be able to get some info by putting that in the search box. I hope your turkey will be okay.
