My free-range turkeys are soooo friendly it gets them in trouble... They greet any and all visitors who drive to my farm by running after their car as they drive in. But today I got scared because a municipal employee parked his pickup along our farm lane, and then when he walked back to his truck my 6 turkeys got all excited and ran after him chirping and 2 of them hopped INTO the bed of his pickup as he was slowly backing out.
I know it sounds like they were trying to stowaway, but really, they have the happiest life here, and I wonder how I can prevent them from doing this anymore. I hadn't worried about it previously because it was only those of us living here that it happened to, and we just chase the turkeys out of the cab. This guy didn't even know they were back there, happily pecking at his shiny storage boxes. I had to tell him to wait while I chased them out!
