I recently bought a pasture raised turkey and took it home and put it in the freezer.

I just took it out to move some things around and saw these two spots. Any idea as to what it could be? Should I be contacting the farm and returning it?

    I’m no expert but I don’t trust green poultry….

    I’ve never seen that either. Hope this helps. From the internet:

    >Green or yellow bruising on a turkey is a result of trauma to the bird and is caused by a broken blood vessel under the skin. The color of a bruise on a turkey changes over time as the hemoglobin degrades, from red to violet, and then to shades of green and yellow.

    I’d take it back to the grocery store
