Probably won't be long till the gobbler has to cry uncle, lol do you raise your turkeys for meat do you sell them, I'd think you'd have to do something with them can't imagine 45 turkeys running around at one time for long anyway. lol

No eggs, but she is determined to be a mommy, lol. We have had storms and minor flooding, the goose nest flooded so she decided the chicken nest boxes looked like a good place to lay and try to start her family. The ducks also decided the same, found 2 ducks eggs in the box next to her this morning. This coming spring I will finally let her try hatching babies.

Very busy. I finally can take a breath. Both of my sons managed to crack teeth, my youngest has a tooth that is completely missing, which has caused problems with his jaw growth, so he is getting ready for some major work to try and correct the issue. My eldest son just needs braces to straighten his teeth. Both boys were on the football team, and the eldest is on the soccer team. My youngest has started coming back to dog training with me. I managed to find the perfect home for Fiona the Rottweiler I rescued, then I ended up rescuing a kitten that I am trying to find a home for. 2 of my dogs, Dawn and Phantom take their CGC test next week. Dawn is ready for competition level agility training. Phantom is finally ready to show, so in January I am taking him to his first show. Rascal is doing extremely well in competition obedience, and Sasha has been promoted to agility demo dog and obedience demo dog. Dawn, Phantom, and Sasha are all currently on the agility demo team, and we had a major demo the Saturday before Halloween. My BO and BA hens have decided they want to hatch babies just like the goose pictured, so I have to fight them everyday to collect eggs. My life has been completely taken over by my kids and animals, lol.

P.S. We are getting a new puppy Dec 13. She will be 2 weeks old this Saturday and she is the most adorable Siberian Husky pup I have seen in a long time.

I can just see one of mine trying to fit in one of the chicken nest boxes. It would be like trying to put 50 lbs of mud in a 5 lb sack. Just would not work.
