Two days in a row I got all 4 twerps in with minimal fuss. Sunflower seeds to the rescue! And I managed to somehow keep the big girls from scaring them out of the run. Meanies.

Cuteness alert!
One of our pencil hens hatched out a clutch today...
Mindy watching and trying to count them I think!
They don't stay still very long!
I think Mindy is still trying to figure out how to sneak them into the house so she can watch them all the time! LOL
Thank you @dhetzel and @blarneyeggs
For helping me get these cuties.

Thank you, everyone, for your wonderful offers! Tomorrow, we are seeing a local guy who has a flock of RIW bachelors that are destined for the dinner table. But if things go sideways, I will definitely contact one of you guys. And AnnInTheBurbs, we're not too far away! We're in Monroe county.
If anyone's interested, I can keep you up on the Australorp drama as it unfolds. We take the egg turner out of our incubator in just five days, and then from there, it's Australorpalooza.
I was afraid it would be something easy like that. I can see I've got a lot of work to do.My turkeys are easy lol. I grab their food dish and they follow me to the garage while I fill it up a little and then right into the coop for the night. They chow down then hop up on the roost for the night.
They are extremely tame though (at the very least, my head Tom is) and they follow me everywhere when I'm outside. I even have a hard time getting Adam to get off me so I cam go do other stuff. He likes nothing more than to snuggle up on my lap lol.
Today, on our way home from the bus stop, we saw a wild turkey hen wandering around near the road just around the corner from our house. The kids panicked because they thought Sweet Pea had wandered that far from our house on get own lol. She's part eastern wild (so I've been told) but I didn't realize how much she looked like a wild turkey until today. Of course, I don't have a good picture lol.
