It will be interesting to see when grown

That's what I thought too.

Found this box turtle trying to get out of the poultry yard. So I put her on the other side. Came back after checking poults and she was trying to get back in. So I put her back in. After the storm I went out and didn't see her. Had a bit of rain almost 3 inches in a short time with hail ...

Snood picker is a bad boy. He would be my first pick for freezer camp in a few months

I checked the good mama about noon and all was well. 2pm a dead poult near the door. She was sitting in the back about the same spot. Not all are meant to live.

I have seen a fox a couple weeks ago and a pair of coyotes last week. So I am assuming the pair scared the hen, without her loosing feathers, over the 2 fences. She was either caught off property or got lost. The poult could be somewhere in the weeds dead. A 3 days old could easily be missed...

No lgd Known chance I take with semi free range. That's why I have too many, I thought it would make predator loss easier emotionally. Still stressful.

So far still no sign of them. The good mama has at least 14 poults. 11 from the missing one. There's 3 eggs she moved off of and I gave them to another who had one. The hen that had one was laying across the road and came back with a shoulder missing feathers. I locked her in a few days and she...

Well I can't find this hen and her lone poult this morning. I assume something got them. Or she's hiding somewhere. There was a storm last night and I was out there checking fences a few minutes after sunrise. No sign of a struggle, she was in a knee high weedy area 100x50. I would think there...

I have seen a couple this year. Last year I followed several from the garden to between the house, bushes and steps in some leaf litter. That was the only pollinators in the garden.

No pictures but first 3 hatches of the year. Monday was a chicken chick instead of the turkey eggs due next week. :barnie gave the turkey eggs to another due then. Today a nest that had been rained on had 12 of 15 hatch. She was on a walk about leaving them alone, so I grab 11 and gave to the "...

I have skinned owl kills in the middle of winter looking for punctures, but I get the thigh medallions if ok.

Is this how people clean their wild birds? I always plucked https://www.onxmaps.com/hunt/blog/cleaning-wild-turkey-guide

Yeah I just butchered a tom that was king last spring and was injured when he was deposed by a nephew. I should have butched him then...or mid summer when he twisted half a wing off a late poult. But I waited until last week. Only reason I did the deed was eggs hatching this week and I know he...

I buy a bag a year or walk across the road every other year and gleen my cousin's field after harvest. I throw some in a pen to get them use to going in so they are easier to catch.

And mine fight over corn

Is it spring season there?

Thank you !

I have at least 4 brooding. 2 more stayed in the nest box all night. Another came flying back from across the road.
