Serene.

My solo Narragansett is finally starting to look more like a gangly turkey than a cute little poult. Sudden growth spurt, I guess. Sometimes I think I'll name it Nigel, sometimes I think Nancy.

It is quite bonded with the CdM "tutors" and often hoots in distress when it realizes none of them are in its general vicinity.

I have about 17 from those first few weeks of hatching, and they slide right thru the tall grass making little paths. I was weeding off the beaten path, when a little one parts the tall grasses making a tunnel all the way to me. THey are a wonder.

Is this the time to say I just put one in the oven? It's only about the size of a smallish chicken, but we wanted to test one out.

WHat no photo of the roast? Maybe after it is roasted . . before carving ?

I'll do that, he's starting to smell yummy!

Okay, sorry the picture is fuzzy, but he was tasty!

Not Thanksgiving, just roasted!
