Questions about adopting chicks to broody hen

Congrats! That's an awesome find. We also have tons on our property, maybe clearing may help, but honestly they grow so strong and full, that I don't think it's necessary, I do use the mower to cut paths through them to reach more berries. My observation tells me that the new shoots don't grow...- KJ6485

Turkeys sure are different, they seem somewhat dog like to me, ours will run to greet us, and follow us around the yard.- KJ6485

Is she home?? Our big white predator target never coops at night, she would rather roost on a fence, and there are times when we CAN NOT find her no matter what, but she always comes back! good luck, I hope yours comes back too, Im waiting to here if she does~- KJ6485
