I have 9 turkeys. Of which, 1- 7.5mth old hen keeps escaping! I have a 4ft tall horse fence that holds 56 birds and only 1 keeps getting out! She only gets out when were not home and when we get home shes pacing the fence like she wants back in. But if were home she KNOWS not to get out. We have clipped her wing and shes still getting out. I dont want to sell her, but i dont want her showing the rest of the kids what they can do (they dont even try). Im about to put up a privacy fence but to surround 1/2 acre for 1 bird is a little steep. I dont mind her getting out as she doesn't hurt anything when shes out BUT our neighbors arent exactly responsible with the "stray" dogs (aka they feed but dont claim....bs i know) but the dogs dont show up when were there only when were not. So its not like i can "solve the problem" i need advice before i sink a bunch of money into a privacy fence! Please!!!!!!
