@duluthralphie If geese are evil for getting out of fences, what are turkeys for killing roosters and ravens?I had a Turkey named Mr T... He and Mrs T were new to the flock.
When he matured He knew he was Marvelous to behold... He would fluff up and in Snidely Whiplash fashion walk sideways up to me. I would whip around to look at him he would deflate and find something very interesting on the ground. His hen pretty much ignored everyone.
There was one little game fowl throwback in the flock... a feisty little B---rd. His favorite thing to do was challenge Mr. T .... One day I came home and found the Game Fowl Scalped.... I couldn't catch him to put him down. Mr. T just looked at me as if to say "what!"
Then in the cool months I heard a commotion. in the Coop. Mr. T was flogging something in the corner... No roosters left what could it be?
I pulled Mr. T off and there on the ground on its back with its feet up and eyes tightly shut.... A Raven. I picked it up thinking it was dead. Um no playin possom. and very very cold. I tucked it in my jacket and went to the front porch to set and ponder. I felt movement looked in my coat and saw black glittering eyes looking back at me... Then it shut its eyes tight again. I inspected it carefully Nothing broken no blood. So when It moved again I went out to my drive and set it on its feet.
I expected it to fly away... But NO las I saw of it it was walking down the drive way looking back occasionally.... I can imagine it was grumbling trying to come up with a story over the whole incident.
My roommate was afraid of Mr. T I just found him hilarious. He didnt survive the bobcat attack of 2004
