My Turkens Are Beautiful, And Yours Are, Too!

My rooster, Speckle Roo. A mutt cross of a Rumpless Araucana, a Spitzhauben and a bantam turken

Good Lord that is one cute Turken roo!

I'm not being facetious, either

Oh dear. I'm sorry but I must say something here.

There is a contest on Animal Planet called "The World's Ugliest Dog". Invariably it's won by a Chinese Crested with, um, I'll call them genetic issues.

These dogs are dearly loved and highly prized by their owners and the dog community and I completely appreciate that (especially since I have a female dog that DH refers to as the Klingon and most people think is male. It doesn't help that she's technically a lab but is missing her tail - you get the idea).

I'm thinking that there may be a poultry contest which embodies the same idea. We love them dearly but they're ****ugly.

Can we get a sticky? Or a contest?

 

[dangerouschicken]

There already was one.

I personally don't think all Turkens are ugly. HENCE THIS THREAD.

 

[DuckLady]

Yeah, what she said.

Turkens are GORGEOUS!

 

[dangerouschicken]

This thread still needs more Turkens.
