    You don’t think even trying a sling would work?

    Help with Turkey

    He’s just a baby - he will be a year in March. He free ranges, gets around really well (before this) but I know.. I know they’re not meant to live long but he’s just turned out to be the best boy.

    Help with Turkey

    Would that help anything long term? I’ve made a chicken sling before but it didn’t end up helping.. I just don’t know what to do. My head tells me a huge turkey can’t live without working legs and I need to just call it but I love this stupid bird

    Help with Turkey

    Alright - I know it’s a long shot and that’s fine but.. my BBW turkey got stomped/trampled/rolled by a cow on Thursday. He got up and walked afterwards, he’s been eating and drinking. But, starting Friday, he doesn’t want to walk, I figured he was sore which is to be expected but now when he...

    Avian Flu & Guineas

    That’s what their coops are now 😅 just dog pens covered in tarps under a loading shed, in thinking if I have to, I’ll just build runs off that. Jeeze there is some girl on IG spreading junk about anybody reporting flocks (even their own) being a danger to all chicken keepers Nd how all tests...

    Avian Flu & Guineas

    Ugh. I don’t even have a run at all 😩 we have to start from scratch basically. Their current pen is NOT big enough for any length of time. I’m going to have to figure it out I’m afraid

    Avian Flu & Guineas

    Hey y’all - so we’ve had a case of avian flu confirmed in Texas, Erath County - which is 182 miles from me. Makes me a bit nervous - I have a flock of 20 guineas and 16 chickens who free range. I can definitely start figuring out how to build a covered run or get them moved in to the barn. I’m...

    Three babies grown up!

    I’m guessing 🤷🏻‍♀️ Very strange colors compared to my others! I have 6 pearls, 3 pied, 2 lavender. That’s my OG group. These three and then 6 babies - 2 are pearl and 4 are buff.

    Why do guineas….

    Yes!! The squeaky noise!!! I have typically seen the hens do it to the males… like a really really fast run with wings up and then a low low ground run and then right under the breast of another bird. It’s so funny to watch

    Why do guineas….

    Alright - I keep meaning to ask this - sometimes I see my birds (typically hens ) do this weird like low ground run around another bird and then kind of nuzzle under the other Guinea? Anybody seen their bird do this?
