The dog is roadkill. The ahole turkey seems to have far too much testosterone. It's seriously messed up in the head. I had to actually fight it and win, then it peeved off. It jumped at me and left a long bruise on my calve. It stalks and curses at me, but only attacks when I turn my back or...

Okay. Didn't say they were threatening. They were making me and the dog itchy after being near the coop. They're all, or mostly, dead now.

I didn't mean any breed in particular, not even a meat breed. Just wanting a regular turkey, but in banty size.

One of the turkey hens has lost its mind today! WTF Suddenly nasty towards its friend today, found them fighting through a pallet fence, covered in blood and nonstop chasing & attacking the other. Attacked me & left a big mark when I separated them. It caught the other by the lower beak. The...

Google grain or flour mite. There's lots of different kinds. Sprayed everything with permethrin 10 and so far no new mites.

Feed Yes.

TSC has given my coop mites! Opened the nest door and they're swarming all over the coop! What do I use to kill them? Do I need to spray the birds? They seem unaffected by them. But they have spread onto my dog & they come off onto me when I play with him. Ugh

NOT the mini white meat bird. Looking to see if anyone breeds for miniature or bantam turkeys?? They make banty ducks, why not turkeys? Turkeys are more interactive than chickens, but are huge. Hoping someone, somewhere, is breeding for a banty gobbler.

The roo & hen chicks. Hen. Kinda ugly, but at least not solid black.

Well, the little 💩s started escaping non-stop. So, out they went! I don't know how they get poop up so high...anywho, they're doing okay out there. Turkeys will probably be the biggest problem, as they aren't allowed in the coop itself. Enclosed the run, so they're out there at night. But...

I'm hoping he's long gone before he's an adult.

Roo & hen mutts. Now 6wks old, fully feathered. Should I try to introduce them now or keep them inside until adults? Idk if they'll get larger, so they're currently no issue with being inside.

One chick is a roo, it crows. Terrible. Will try to sell him. Added a light to the coop on a timer.

The two Sebright roosters have sold!

Forgot that the bandy hen vanished recently. So, 3 hens down in all. About to list 2 of the roos, as they're stalking me. They'll start attacking soon. Hate roos so much.
