Hi,
I ordered a few BR turkey poults and need to build them a coop. What type of housing do they need for overwintering in cold climates?
The wild turkeys and quail hang around all winter just a half mile south of my house, so I wasn't sure if turkeys will need an enclosed coop or if they can roost in a three sided shed (with a wire front to keep predators out). If so, I could convert one of my existing run-in sheds.
Thanks!
Michelle
