Trevor the Turkey and his New Shoes

Trevor, just three days old, was born with ’scrunched-up’ toes, which made it difficult to walk.

Vet Pip Boydell, a partner in the treatment centre, said: “The traditional method of dealing with a problem like this is to apply a small wooden splint to straighten the toes.

“We tried that with Trevor, but it wasn’t effective, so we had to come up with something else.

“In the end, it turned out to be creating false webbed feet by using board and surgical tape.
