Aww..will ya look at that Ethel. What a good moma!

Congrats on the new poult Feedman!

Hang in there JR. Hoping for the best!

Surgery Friday. Will take 2 surgeons & some plates. They think the air bag broke. Who knows. This blows...

Good luck memphis hope all turns out well.

Do they let comfort turkeys in the hospital?

Anne the therapy turkey has to be allowed in, it's the law.

 

[memphis]

Sure wish they would allow a therapy turkey! Its exhausting dragging this huge cast around and trying to do things with one hand. Such is life!

My turkey girls don't know what it is!

Well the poult hence forth will be called "George" It's still hanging in there. Mixed up some crumble(24%) and egg yolk,took a little while but i got some of it down it's throat. I'm trying not to get my hopes up. Talked to the breeder,we both think that a combination of stress and getting wet(it was FLOODING) when I got them home is the cause of the malady. The other 4 are doing well. I saw one eating earlier,if they figure the water out they should be ok.

Want me to come down and nail it back together for you? I have a fancy air nailer.... or I could use a DeWalt impact driver on you?


It would save on anesthesia... I would do it fast and give you a stick of wood to bite..







Good luck on it all

You could at least offer her a Mike's Hard Lemonade

George's plumbing is working,that's encouraging

Hope surgery is done both fast and well, and recovery swift.

The breeder has two more that are a month old. If he still has them next week I'm going to get them. And some more of the Chukars,they have nice sounding vocalizations. Bet they taste good too

One of the people that came to buy my extra pullets wanted to buy some of my poults too. I am not sure what to charge for them really, as most of the poults are actually palm(hen) burbon red(Tom) crosses. A few are pure burbon red. They want all the poults I can sell!

 

[JRNash]

I gave 16$ a piece. He (breeder)is going to let me have the one month olds for 15$ with the condition that I'm purchasing more Chukar
