I think I totally understand. :hugs

I do that to myself too. Waited my whole life to be able to do this that and the other so I cram to much in and regret it.

When I bought this house I was all jazzed to be able to have a big garden. Oh what a glorious dream. We tilled and planted 1/2 the back yard.
We found just weeks in that the ground that looked good had no nutrients, had tons of nasty bind weed and dried out instead of absorbing water. It formed the grand canyon where all the water went to increase the water table.
Fought that for 3 years before downsizing.

I really want to curse my head off right now...

While trying on a new back brace, in prep for tomorrows big day.... somehow I threw my back out.... JMJ and the damn 12 guys following... WHY?!?

Already took some muscle relaxers, on a heating pad anf going to sleep VERY soon.

And, tossing this out to the group since RJ doesn't wanna answer..... what do you all think about this? https://westky.craigslist.org/grd/6577651593.html

Already have the STDH convinced we have 3 in the bathtub..... wanted to test out the *ask for forgiveness* theory before actually doing anything... I'd hate to see him REALLY ticked off from me doing that....lolol

That's a great price for turkeys. RPs seem more fragile then the other heritage breeds, but they are truly like big feathered dogs. While brooding, it's good to put a week old chick or two in with day old polts, avoid square corners in the brooder. I brood mine for three weeks then put them in a tractor on pasture for 5 more. For the first 8 weeks they can find very creative ways to commit suicide. After 8 weeks they become pretty indestructible. You'll want to get your turkey starter in scottsville, if memory serves it's about $21 per bag for the organic 24%. KENTUCKY ORGANIC FARM & FEED is a sure bet, but you might also be able to get it at one of the amish farms: Mazelin's Feed Mill or Hoover Sorgham & Feed Mill. Problem with the last two is you can't call them to see if they have it, no phone.

I am curious as to why my "Royal Palm" turkey poults are brown!View attachment 1384171
They are not this crowded, they have much more space but all happened to be under the light. They are going into the outdoor brooder soon!

Sorry cap, I don't see any RPs in that pic... I see some BR and Narri and some crosses I don't recognize, you might want to check out porters for identification pix or post on Ralphie's thread. R2 is pretty good with early turkey id.

Morning all... :frow
