I have found wild turkey's are actually very smart. It sounds stupid but we have roving gangs of young wild toms who go through farms and ransack feed rooms. Seriously, it's a problem where I live. XD They are like little gangs of younger toms who come onto farms and open the metal trashcans and...

I think that is what happened to our two turkeys. They didn't have all their feathers in yet but they free ranged with the bantam chickens and refused to come in during the rain because there was still scraps outside they wanted to eat. The chickens all went in and the two turkeys ended up...

Chickens drown if they look up in the rain? Never heard that about chickens, only turkeys. Of course our turkeys were not very smart and ended up standing int he middle of a downpour while our chickens ran inside and ended up getting phenomena and dying. Even our ducks who liked the rain ran...

AAAAACK.....what is wrong with people T.T do they not know chickens can lay epic colored eggs and give you egg rainbows? >.< Well I am excited for your green eggs, I bet the eggs taste great and look fantastic. I am wanting an olive egger so bad but they are all out at the hatchery I am getting...

I was a vegetarian from the age of three (yes, I don't know how but suddenly I said I won't eat my friends) until I was 22 years old but recently have started eating more meat because of health reasons. (ironically the only meat I will eat is poultry since red meat makes me highly ill because I...
