Hey Guys so i do have a pecking problem, They have been attacking my Turkey Toms butt a bit and i want to put something on that they wont peck at! what other than the Blue-kote can you put on? is that stuff just like blue paint?? So a skin spray on paint should work eh? or maybe another remedy?
 
I used Bag Balm to solve the problem with a chicken. Don't know if it tastes bad to other birds, but maybe worth a try,

Blu-kote is an antiseptic and antifungal medicine. It's good for wounds. It also disguises the wounds so the other birds don't peck at it.
 
I don't know the name of it, but we buy a stuff that is specifically for birds to stop pecking. It contains coal tar, cloves I think...maybe tea tree oil? I know it's a mixture of things that I found to be relatively safe, meaning I didn't mind my future meat or egg birds to have it on their skin (and possibly ingest a little bit of it). We got it at Big R (much like a TSC or other farm supply store). I think it was called a No Pick Lotion?
