Wild friends

[eggsgalore]

During free range times, my chickens mingle with a few wild turkeys. Will that affect their health, regarding parasites?
It is actually cute. When the turkeys see me throwing scratch, they come running.

the turkeys will be no more problem then the chipmunks,doves or other wilds ( until there gets to be ALOT of the "wild" ) in fact by what i've read,, the wild turkeys are in more danger of catching something from your chickens.
