Guess Daisy had a case of the "zoomies" this morning. They were both running around flapping & twirling when Daisy decided to launch. She flew right by me at head height. Just about a foot away. Kind of cool to stand there & watch your bird fly by. She must have been feeling it this morning. She is such a character!
Can't believe how warm its been down here. Still in the mid to high 80's. And no rain since August. Had to run the sprinklers....to the delight of the turkeys.
I have decided to send one to Wyoming to the famous R2elk's school for wayward turkeys.
I have a greyhound ticket or her. Hopefully they will pick her up in town.
She can no longer live here without serious retraining. All day today the turkeys have hung out just outside the door to the coop. It has been a terrible yucky drizzling day. I went and got a small bucket of treats to lure them inside. Most of the turkeys started into their pen. This one, which happens to be the one my DW thinks is blind because she can never seem to find the door. Takes off running away from the coop calling the young turkeys to come to her. They started to. They would rather follow her than me. I finally got them all in, except her.
Then she came running to the door screaming at me for "locking her out"!
I cannot have this behavior, I am sure R2elk's school for wayward turkeys will change her into a good turkey and stop her from trying to corrupt the young ones.
