First Annual Cinco de Mayo Turkey Hatchathon- Join us! Set Day: Easter

[karimw]

I saw down your way there were some Bard Ronks in the Craig's List ads, and also I saw there were a whole bunch or Rhodesian Reds!!

I know it's not nice to laugh...I'm a baaaaad maaaaaaan, as my kids would joke. They love quoting movies. The next thing out of their mouth would be, "Momma did a bad bad. You have to hold the 'bad person' water bottle now." Somehow they decided that if one is overly gleeful in someone else's misfortune, or if one makes fun of another, you have to carry around a water bottle that has BAD PERSON written on it in Sharpee. They think they're awesome because they make family members accountable for Schadenfreude!!

I love my goofy teens!

I get a good laugh at some of the things I see in Craig's list. You can buy Red Cannes bulbs, Daxands and Orplingtons, though I prefer Cannas, Dachshunds and Orpingtons. I'm really kind of embarrassed for those folks.



Zookeeper - so sorry for your baby

It does take self control to not send them a copy of their text..........edited.

(Sometimes around here too

, of course not on THIS thread.)

1 Harvest Gold
2 Jersey Buff

No color coding or markings. I have NO IDEA who is who. This is the first time I have had turkeys.

if you go to the "breed" pages (like chocolate, black, and so on).. then scroll down.. you might find a baby pic for that breed or color or what ever you want to call it
he doesn't have baby pics on all of the adult pages.. just some

On the ordering poults page, there's a baby picture for each breed/variety.

I ordered fifteen also, but didn't get such a variety as you. I'm getting slate, royal palm & tiger bronze. I have to wait a couple of months for mine
