Sick turkey chick!

[casportpony]

Is it pooping? Do you have a food scale that you can weigh it on?

Welcome To BYC

Can you please post photos of the Poult, his vent and the abdomen?

You mention that he may be blocked- what do you mean - is his vent blocked?

What are you feeding him?

Is his navel closed?

Which part seems swollen to you? The abdomen area? Has it gone down at all since you first got him?

If it's eating, drinking, & pooping, it has a chance. Can you get a food scale to weigh it on?

It's still flabby looking. It doesn't look like water belly it looks like flabby skin but it feels mushy he seems a little better this morning he ate a little. I have never raised a turkey so I am at a loss. I will post a picture
