Sorry I missed typed up there. I meant to say I don't eat turkey. I have eaten and I don't like it, even as a child I never liked it, I always eat ham for the holidays. I don't even like chicken all that much though I will eat it from time to time (just not my own chickens, to me that is like I...
I just went to this site and MAN!! my mind is blown, I never knew there were so many turkeys, but then I never knew there were as many as I know about now before I started looking really hard for me some turkeys, you know when I couldn't fight the urge to have some anymore(that is when I got my...
I was thinking bronze. And someone else here thought bronze too. But who knows? It could just be some weird genetics in play as well. She is super shy and timid. She avoids all conflict or any perceived conflict. The others will run up to me and she just says "I'll stay back here thank you."
I'm with y'all. They are my pets. My mom tells me I'm wasting my money because I won't eat them. But first of all. I don't eat my chickens or ducks either so. And second, I've never eaten turkey so what's the difference?
Have you raised them from chicks? Or from young? I have a dark one that I don't know what she is. She came from a farm that had royal palm, blue slates, and recently acquired bourbon reds. They had no clue when she hatched what happened there.
I have 3 definite toms. I had them gobbling at me tonight. The fourth royal palm and the dark one might be females. My fingers are crossed that they are.
I definitely have 2 toms. 1 I knew for sure when I bought him. The other I found out when they went head to head with one of my chickens over some bananas that the turkeys didn't even like, but I think I might have 3 maybe 4. But if my luck stays true then I have 5 lol.
After mourning the loss of my blue slates. I have purchased me some more turkeys yesterday(8-15-2017) I am now the happy turkey momma to 4 royal palms and a mystery turkey. The neighbors dogs ended up getting both of my turkeys, 3 ducks and a hen and rooster of my Ayam Cemani chickens.
My neighbors 3 dogs escaped their pen and killed at least 2 ducks and 1 of my turkeys. I am so heart broken. I don't know where my guineas are or where my other turkey is. They also got one of my ayam cemani roosters, but he is still alive, he is hurt though. They also might have got one of my...
