She has always loved me, but the past 3 weeks she has been super mean. I have tried to just avoid her, I have tried to dominate her, I have tried to 'fight' back. Nothing works and I am getting tired of getting blood-welts everytime I go into the corral.
What could be causing the behaviour change? I don't know how old she is, but I'm suspecting about 15-20 months, she came with the house when we moved in May. She is the only turkey, they had another female but she was eaten by a coyote in April.
My friend thinks she might be needing a mate. This summer I posted a few times about how she was 'presenting' to me for mating. Is she mad bc I'm not fulfilling my end of the bargain?? This same friend has a tom that she is willing to give me (not a BR, something else) but the last thing I want is two turkeys pecking at me.
What do you think???
