    Give me the dirt on turkeys

    GBoy...I miss the gobbles soooo much!! I wish my last heritage tom hadn't gone "stealthy" and started picking on the dogs. It was kind of funny, but they knew they couldn't "get even" so he had to go. I can't wait for the BBs to come in locally so I can look foreward to some more gobbles!!

    Hatching Geese

    I just hatched a goose. 4 were given to me and 3 ended up not forming at all. I did about the same, temp 99, humidity 50 to 55, pulled the turner out on day 28 & upped the humidity to 60 +. I was doing chicken eggs also and after no word from my goose, and all the chicks were out, I went to...
