    Turkey Talk for 2014

    Thank you! I do enjoy having these turkeys around! I loved the pictures of the silkies and turkeys. Those tiny silkie Momma's can be quite protective! LOL This girl just cracks me up because I never know what to expect to find with her. She is brooding a silkie mix hen. The chicken hen would...

    I am sorry about your little one and glad you gave it a chance. It sounds like you are prepared either way it goes for your little one. My girl, Babs turned 3 years old last month and Crooky a silkie rooster turned 2 years old. Crooky is not as severe as Babs. The only extra I do for them is use...

    Thank you! They are growing like weeds! LOL I can't wait to see what they are but only plan on keeping one Tom though. The other Momma hen is not getting up to take care of the littlest one. I have been doing my best to keep it fed and watered as much as possible.

    Post Pics of your Leghorns

    I believe she might be a dark brown. She was one of my very first chickens and she was part of a surprise package from MPC. She is an older gal and this is her first time being broody but she is doing a great job with these little ones. It is funny how she was always very flighty and this is how...

    Turkey Talk for 2014

    The babies are getting big fast! She has been a good Momma especially it being her first time. This little one has me puzzled. It hatched a few days ago and was set under a different broody turkey hen about the same time these were set. The other Momma is brooding in a crate with 3...

    Turkey Talk for 2014

    I did post the pictures I could get so far on page 286. Mom isn't leaving the nest very often but I caught her off the other day. Not the greatest but hopefully I can get some more soon. The remaining 2 eggs in the picture did hatch but one did not pull through, I am not sure why. I found it...

    Turkey Talk for 2014

    There are so many cute new poults on here and you guys did not warn me how cute and friendly these little ones are!!!! I have had 3 hatch so far. My silkies initially stole the eggs and started the incubation but when my turkey girl went broody, I put them under her so there could be more to...

    Yes, these are Joel's babies. Leon had kids already! The other one is a little naked neck. It hatched a few days later than it's hatchmates and Joel's babies were more closer in age at the time so I put it with Lucy Lou Lou and the Fav babies. Lucy will take any baby as her own. I have to get...

    Are chickens categorized the same as grazing animals?

    Right, I understand chickens don't always stay within their boundries and I understand if someone does not want a neighbors chickens on their property. In the letter, they are saying they cannot be out of the partially fenced pasture even though it still is my property. But the thing that...

    Are chickens categorized the same as grazing animals?

    Thank you! I will post it as soon as my hubby gets home to ask him where he stuck the letter. It is citing an ordinance dealing with grazing animals saying they need to be kept within a fenced area and are not allowed to roam freely on my own property!!! So they are saying they can't free range...

    Are chickens categorized the same as grazing animals?

    My township is saying that chickens are grazing animals. I was just wondering if if this the usual for other municipalities in that they categorize chickens with "grazing animals" on the ordinances. Thanks!
