A century of Turkey talk 2000-2100.

We have a wild tom hanging out outside our turkey enclosure. He and my tom Dumpling keep displaying constantly, the girls don't seem that interested in the wild tom, but can't get to him even if they were. How long do you think the wild tom will hang around?

I got to within 5 feet of him yesterday. His tail looks better than my tom's, but he's smaller. He also has a beard that's pretty long.

No idea, but he's pretty.
I have a wild hen that has moved in with mine, she only leaves at night now. The people in town are disappointed they don't see her anymore. I'm thinking of asking for feed donations in exchange for visits and pictures. lol

I had a tom stop my car on the highway last weekend so his ladies could cross safely, then he tried to attack as we tried to nudge by him. That is the extent of my wild turkey encounters.
 
It's been pounding her all day. Looks like it's pinned to Memphis. The bottom is heading your way and the middle is still in Memphis...

Will it get you before it comes here? I know you are kinda sorta on the border. Or maybe just barely miss you.... hopefully! I am not lookin forward to this one much. Yesterday they gave us a three out of five warnin level for it already and it is not even here yet.

We really need Ralphie to look at it. It's kind of doing what the last one did, get's pinned in the middle and then starts to rotate. This one makes me nervous as if the tail comes up to me, it will come in from the south, not a direction I ever want to see a windy storm come from. This morning it was a straight line from west Texas to the great lakes. it's no longer a straight line. If I get what's left after it get's done dumping on Memphis it won't be much.
