I have three fears in this world. All three are considered to be off the wall by everyone else in the world, but I think they are all validated. My main one, the one my husband is constantly poking fun at me about, is Turkeys. Is this a unfounded fear? It seems every-time I come into contact with one I get attacked...So I have become rather anti turkey. Am I just encountering bad turkeys? I'll give you a few examples throughout my life of turkey attacks: 5 years old-I'm at a petting zoo, big white Tom sneaks up behind me and gobbles causing me to drop my petting zoo food...Tom does this three more times. 17 years old- driving down the road and a wild turkey flies into my drivers side window. Luckily window was up. Turkey breaks my side view mirror. Turkey lives. 20- visiting a friends farm, he has turkeys. the supposedly "gentle" "Sweet" Tom attacks me. Supposedly he'd never attacked anyone. I could go on, but I think this is enough for everyone to laugh at for now.
In your experiences everyone, are turkeys generally mean? I was honestly thinking about hatching a turkey egg to overcome my fear... but I'm not sure it's a good idea to have something in my yard that's going to try to kill me every-time I go out.
