A century of Turkey talk 2000-2100.

Yeeks! Thought my mottled poult was dead! She was laying on her side....but she was just sleeping using the towel as a pillow! Thought she was a gonner!

Haha! They just love that towel! You can never take it away now. It's officially their blankie!

Ralphie....too cold - too hot....hate both!

Aurora....thinking the same thing. They have really glommed onto it. I guess they now have a blankie! These birds really have me wrapped around their toes! Daisy is passing on her diva behavior! She's probably giving them tips on how to get me to do their bidding!

 

[OneMountainAcres]

Ok, you asked for it! Pictures of the penciled flock! I may have taken WAY too many lol

This guy will probably be Thanksgiving dinner

And this one may make a journey to the swap since Phil gets breeding rights to all the penciled ladies

Lil and Eve in the backround

This girl has very little color on her

Remember that bratty palm poult that used to jump on my head? This is Duchess. She's just about all grown up now but still loves to pick on me. She just got done picking at my shorts for attention here.

I love this one's coloring. Very much pastel

Phil, showing off

Mister is pretty rough looking right now. He needs to grow in some new feathers!

Sweet Pea, Preening

And Pebbles, hanging out

Can't forget Romeo

The baby of the bunch. She's the smallest in the turkey pen and the last penciled That I hatched out this year. She's bonded to a group of chickens and tries to escape every day to hang out with them. I had to clip a wing so she couldn't anymore. She comes crying to me every evening, complaining about having to sleep with the turkeys!

Wow they look great!! The color variations are amazing! Phil & Mister are stunning! Romeo & Pebbles are still my favorites!

Memphis! Seriously, put the #$&@ phone in your pocket. We MUST see this silliness!

Ohmygoodness, Aurora! They’re gorgeous. You must have so much fun watching them.

@memphis That is what I get for not speaking on here for a year. You forgot lol. Head to Kansas City on 70 and half way between there and Columbia take hwy 65 north for hour and half. I am north of Feedman.
@Auroradream26 good looking flock. Yep, a shame you are so far away I would have no qualms of taking your swap tom. I will definitely be ordering some pencilled from Porters next spring.

If she's part sight hound...shes hardwired to run! She can't help doing what she was bred for! I hand my hound little treats throughout the day. Little bit of cheese, fog treat here & there...etc....not sure if it puts much weight on him, but makes me feel better!

Lol and run she does! Nothin makes her more happy other than snugglin down in between paul and i at night. Rotten beastie that she is. She has been SO happy since paul retired and we came home to live two years ago.... she has 120 acres to roam and loves every minute of it. we showed her the boundaries twice... and she never leaves our land. We have been out ridin the four wheeler and see her go after a deer... once it crosses the boundary she is done with the chase and onto the next thing she can find. She is such a good girl for having been in fenced yards all of her life.

Sfgwife....she sounds like a cool dog!

Cindy....tried sneaking up on the poults with the phone....they hop up as soon as they see me! I'm trying!

I did go fluff up their towel for them. Shook out the wood chips and refolded it. I think Daisy smirked at me!
