    Can you explain this girl's behavior?

    We have (what we were told all 2 month old) Narragansett turkeys in a pen while the big pen is being finished. This white girl is new behavior. After doing this she hopped on top of the pen, defecated and hopped back down. Prior to the behavior in the video she only pecked at them.

    Are they all pullets? Yeah another different way of asking.

    I have 8 week old 2 SLW and one golden sex link. The golden girl I already know so my pictures focus on the silver couple. They are always nearby and hate to be separated at all. They call to each other and are almost always laying down or foraging side by side. They could care less about any...
