Hi,
my 4 month old turkeys are both a bit poor looking, kind of thin, scrawny. They are free range and on the same feed as the chooks, which are all fine. I read turkeys need more protein so i bought some soya mix and some mixed seeds and also tried soaked alfalfa pellets that the horse eats but they are not keen on anything. The free ranging is also slim pickings at present it hasn't rained here since June. I'm in Greece. Any suggestions how to feed them up a bit?
Also, should I be treating them for parasites?
