Injured Turkey
Seeking advice:
Yesterday we rescued a baby turkey with an injured leg, the man we got him from said he "couldn't keep up" with his flock and he needed a new home. He has a seriously injured leg that he is not able to support himself with. It looks and feels dislocated so we attempted to splint it last night but it seems to be even worse today. We've been keeping chickens and ducks for a few years but this is our first turkey - if there is anything we can do for him we'd obviously love to see him thrive and live a long healthy life, but if we are just prolonging the inevitable we don't want him to suffer. Any insights or advice would be greatly appreciated.
