If I remember correctly, @oldhenlikesdogs is in Wisconsin.Yeah we’re right by the UP if anyone’s near there. We’re going to keep looking for now. Hopefully we can find one.
As long as the tom has hen turkeys of his own, the chickens should be safe.Yeah I’m having a really hard time finding a turkey. I found one person who will only sell us a Tom which we don’t want. And another person who will only sell us a hen if we buy a tom with it. I just can’t risk a tom with my chickens.
Two hens would be a whole lot better than one. I try to keep a minimum of 4 to 5 hens for one tom.Would one hen be enough for a tom or would we have to get two?
Just because you current turkey hen doesn't bother your chickens doesn't mean any new ones won't. My turkey hens chase and harass my chickens and ducks whenever I let them out of their pen. I'm pretty sure I would find some dead birds if I didn't keep my turkeys separately, so getting your turkeys their own pen would be a good idea.We might get a tom with a hen if I can’t find a lone hen. If I do that I think I might want a separate coop built for them though just in case.
