    Random Turkey showed up...

    Hi guys! I wanted to give you a little update in to how things have gone with RT (random turkey). She has definitely made herself at home. RT is the neighborhoods pet turkey. I only have two neighbors so she visits them begging frequently. She follows everyone around but I am definitely her...

    Random Turkey showed up...

    She’s so pretty! Wow thanks! I didn’t know that. She just seems so different than my chickens. They only like me because I feed them! 😂 So when you say she lays does she go to the coop like the chickens do or will she head to the woods or some place secluded to do that?

    Random Turkey showed up...

    One last thing... I was sitting on the bench at the end of the night and she jumped up and stood there “talking” to me and I put my arm up and she scooted in and say down. It’s to weird... but I definitely agree I think someone one of missing her. I just don’t know who...

    Random Turkey showed up...

    Is this normal for turkeys? I mean I have never been around a turkey ever. Are they sweet? Trusting? Like she seriously was crying to come in our barn the first morning and hasn’t left. She has freedom to not return if she didn’t want to but she never goes far unless it’s to follow us. She...

    This is my new dog that follows us around! I was at work yesterday and I made my husband FaceTime me so I could show all girls that I wasn’t lying to them about her.

    Random Turkey showed up...

    So she has free range to come and go as pleased. I let my birds come and go all day and pen then up at night to protect them from predators. She spends all her time in the goat pen or following the kids around the property. She was penned up in a dog cage inside the barn last night. My husband...

    Random Turkey showed up...

    I definitely don’t think it’s wild. We have neighbors. We live in village limits but are at the edge of town. So past me there bigger farms but in town all half acres lots. She lets me hold her and eats out of my kids hands. The hens don’t pay her any attention and the rooster was a little...

    Easter Egger he or she?

    I bought 13 Easter egger pulleys from rural king in July. I know they are all girls but I have started doubting this one. She looks different from her sisters. Her comb turned red weeks before the rest and her tail feathers are pointed. Not sure if that matters but all my other girls have...

    Someone dropped of this baby and I know nothing about her/him.

    So we have this new addition to our flock and I don't know what he/she is. Any ideas would be great. She has feathered feet also. Is she to young to sex too? Also how do I introduced her to my older girls. They seem to pick on her now.

    Is this feather picking or worse?

    They free run when we are outside to watch them. Lots of predators so we try to keep them close. Out maybe once a week. Our wood pile is beside the care so the bugs they get. And what ever veggies we don't use go to them. No meat or eggs or shells. Scratch grains as a treat every once and...

    Is this feather picking or worse?

    Came out to check my girls tonight and found this. Four of them have this. She is by far the worst one. Please help. Any advice on how to take care of it. I have eight hens. In an enclosed pen. I also thought if any of the hens would be a bully it would have been her.

    Easter Egger Sexing "tips and tricks" *Pictures Included*

    I have a general chicken question... I have 3 EEs and 5 other chickens. None of them sleep in their roosts. They hang out on them through the day but don't sleep there through the night. Is this normal? If so when do they start sleeping on them? And to make it stranger they all cram under their...

    Easter Egger Sexing "tips and tricks" *Pictures Included*

    @bruceha2000 we have a very safe coop with a run, but we're hoping to let them free range. They go in their coop fine at night but it's attached. When you say you have to babysit them if they free range do you always have to babysit them or do they get the hang of it eventually? Do they stay...
