I posted about ten days ago in a panic because Flip was losing weight. He's not losing any more but not gaining either. He plays and chatters and laughs and seems to be eating a lot but.....
Avian vet says the bird is fine.
I need meds!

If he's maintaining his weight that's very good. How old is he and how much does he weigh? I believe that Quakers have a pretty big range for healthy weights so I wouldn't worry too much as long as he's holding steady. If you really want to fatten the little turkey up, try adding a few starchy foods like pasta, cooked potato, rice etc.
