    We are feeding 20% protein for chickens, and lots of scratch. What would you suggest for a good food for turkeys? We have tried soy beans but they don't really seem interested.

    New to turkeys & need some advice

    I have a pair of Royal Palm turkeys. The tom is almost always in full strut and the hen is clucking a lot. When should we see them mating?

    Our snow wasn't the good snow... this was more like snow grains than snow flakes. It lightly snowed for about 6 hours. We were not expecting accumulation but we got a light dusting. Just enough to make driving interesting... (white knuckle interesting). I hate driving in snow and ice... I have...

    Half my chickens stayed in the coop and half decided they wanted to see what this white stuff falling from the sky was. My ducks just looked at their pond that was frozen and looked at me like I could change what was going on. Silly ducks. We gave all the birds hot oatmeal and warm mashed...
