    Great Turkey Taming Trick

    The grasshoppers around here avoid the turkey pen. I can not chase them in that direction and the ones that i catch fly away as soon as they are dropped in the pen. You are very good at catching grasshoppers, it took me forever to catch the 1st one using a net.

    Can Anyone identify this flower?

    Thanks for the offer of purple seeds. I would love to have a few. Would you like some white in exchange or just the postage and handling?

    The great thing about BYC is the broad knowledge of the members. I am sure someone knows what this is called.

    Quick question about lockdown..

    PLEASE HELP. Opened egg on day 25. *graphic photos*

    I can not tell exactly how developed they were when they died. It may have been too much humidity but I would not expect that in Nevada. If you can not control it, the only way to prevent humidity problems it to monitor the weight loss or size of the air space in the future. After 22 days you...

    can turkeys be confined by 4' fence

    Quote: Agreed, but netting is only to keep them in. If you need to keep out predators you need something stronger on top of the run.

    Help, new to turkeys

    That depends on where you are located. It happens a lot sooner the farther south you are.

    Question: Am i looking for turkeys?

    No, you are looking for another kind of bird. A turkey can easily clear a 6 foot fence.

    Need a pair of Royal Plam Turkeys for Christmas in N. ARK

    I have a Royal Palm Tom that I do not want to keep past breeding season but that won't help you because there is 1000 miles and a border between us. I suspect the personality yours had was because he was raised from a very young age. They are easy to tame when you hatch them and handle them and...

    Selling Turkeys for Thanksgiving

    I am a little off topic but a local supermarket had turkeys on sale for 79c per pound. How can anyone make a profit on that? My wife thinks I am crazy for buying a trio of Royal Palms for $100. What can I tell her?
