Did you research some of the info that Frosty posted? Frosty is pretty good at researching and pin pointing illnesses.

Just an update on my turkey. He is much improved, no thanks to me. there is no swelling at the corners of his beak any more, and no extended throat. I guess his legs were swollen some because they look thinner too. He still has a bump over the one eye (that's even getting smaller though). Knee is still larger then normal, but i expect that there is something genetically wrong leg wise (must not be absorbing all the minerals properly or something to account for the curve in legs, shortness of legs and exaggerated joints).

I still have no idea what it was/is. I googled every suggestion i got both here and on other places i posted. Nothing really fit. The biggest tell was that hes in a brooder with 14 other turkeys, if it was viral/bacterial, you'd think at least 1 other bird would show something but he is the only one. Also many of the conditions lists listlessness and loss of appetite as main symptoms, and through it all he ate drank and moved like all the rest.

I will continue to keep a close eye on the rest as well as monitor him for any re occurrences.
Thanks for all the help!
