Pet turkey problems Ok so we feeding my grams animals and she has a turkey and this really weird thing happens... His little beak flap gets sucked up into what looks like a rino horn!!!! Is it because he is hot?? Cuz it gets really hot here???

I have seen a turkey do this before, but I haven't a clue why they are doing it. A little research and look what I found:

... That is apparently called, and I wish I was making this up, the "snood" of the turkey. LOL! No, really.
After seeing the closeup pictures of the turkey faces on that page, I can only conclude that it was a VERY hungry person who first thought it was a good idea to eat one of these!
So, the snood is normal, and your turkey is just fine.
Now if I could just "un-see" those pictures. ;-) ]
