Hatching Eggs / Paypal CHAT Thread

Just added some pictures of some of my silkies in my current birds folder. These aren't all of my Silkies, but these are a few of the oldest ones. I also have several chicks growing out.

I LOVE my turkeys. I didn't think I was going to be THAT fond of them but they're fantastic!

I LOVED my turkeys. They had so much personality and where so friendly. I miss having them.

About flying; my naragansetts flew. In fact, they would roost on my husbands truck- hence why we no longer have them. The broad breasts don't fly. They are far to front heavy. Heritage breeds will though.
I am totally getting some more and just keepin their wings clipped to appease the old man.


I also wanted to say my broad breasteds would literally come up the the glass door and peck on it, and if I were to open it, they would walk in like they owned the place. They would walk around and churppp at me until I shooed them out- afraid of the monster poo.

See that is kind of where I am hanging. Several of my paypal's were claimed by this person. I guess I will go ahead and send just because my conscience is worth more than the shipping. Thanks!

I would send a note saying you are next up, as soon as all the swaps are fullfilled you can have these eggs.

But thats just me.

I take it these don't fly?  Or do you have wing clipped?  I'm showing my ignorance but am trying to figure out pen situation come spring.  How much room do they need?

I clip their flight feathers. l

heritage turkeys fly REALLY well. Mine go up the the roof and demand I stick my head out to say hello every morning as soon as they a re let out, and hang out in the oak trees above our house.

I'm hoping I don't have to clip their feathers because i like them to fly, but one day they try to sleep in those places, here comes the scissors.
