Turkeys are thriving



I might have lost one hen last month but we made up the numbers when the neighbor's "wild" turkey decided to permanently move in with ours. I don't know what the offspring between her and our Bourbon Red Tom would look like because she is so slightly built and has very dark, muted colors. There is probably not a huge market for mutt turkeys so maybe I will collect her eggs for the kitchen. The guineas have decided to stay too and I am really curious to see how their eggs turn out. I don't plan on hatching any of those out because they are too noisy for my peace of mind.
