Already in love with turkeys

[jossanne]

I've had my turkeys for a couple of weeks now, and they are really cool! I don't think they'd had a lot of attention before I got them (they were given to me as 4mo birds), but they are not shy at all. They free range with the chickens during the day, so they have lots of room to get away from me if they want to, but they don't. They don't want to be touched, but they follow me around and when I stop, they all stop and turn to look me in the eye. If I squat down near them, they come up and just look me over really closely. They crack me up, with those funny turkey faces!

Whoda thunk turkeys would be so much fun to have around?!?

The royal palm is King Henry. I haven't come up with appropriate names for the bronzes. I have 3 females and a male. They need really cool names, cuz they're really cool creatures!
