The Quack Shack

Really where do they nest? Don’t believe I’ve ever seen. Turkey nest in a tree. And never seen a nest box hanging up for a turkey to lay in like other birds.

Well, did you know turkeys are not ground nesting birds?

No actually I didn't. Do they nest in trees then?

Both very good points... Kind of makes me wonder what my plan was lol.

I've gotta be honest, I love a good sweat. Nothing cleans the toxins quite like it. Nothing makes hustling in the heat more enjoyable than music. I've got a wide ranging taste in music, but some of my favorites actually don't have words. I've listened to various genres of "techno" since I was about 10. I've always had this thing that I make a mental movie according to what emotions the sounds bring on.

This one has been posted here before, but I didn't tell the movie I see with it. Now, before y'all think I'm completely crazy, I've got a very vivid and visual mind. I can do long and short hand math in my head and see the equations better than if it was in paper. (My mind doesn't leave eraser mark on the paper )

Okay... Cambermaid here reminds me of a sleuth mystery. The bass line increasing in the begging and sets the stage for a drama. The initial horn carries on through the song and is the victim of theft. The higher toned "Waaawawa" is a little French detective, oh yeah, we're in Europe. The little French man is telling the victim "Well I don't know, we'll look in to it." Here and there you'll hear a higher pitched horn, that's the whiteness saying "I don't know Joe." Towards the end the tempo drops, and the horn tone changes signifying a loss of hope. Then the dramatic bass line picks back up while a speach plays in the background, and this is our French man declaring "we've got the perp and justice will be had. Feeling avenged as Joe walks down the street, in to the distance, his tone changes, his beat changes, and he disappears in to the comfort of darkness...

Okay, now you can think I'm crazy.​

The Pink Panther?

Hey Trim! I live in Central Florida too and just fell in love with the feathered frenzy as well. Actually nine days ago. We are raising five ducks, one didn't make it and three runners along with three geese arrive next Wednesday. Super excited! I'm excited to read about your journey....

First two are doing co-parenting on my work bench in the coop shed.

The second two are keeping each other company on a shelf 12ft in the air, like common pigeons.

so one can only conclude turkeys are not ground nesting birds.

The Pink Panther?

Pretty much.

oh dear are you sure they are not building something to do away with you? One of them not named McGyver is it? Is it?......

Turkeys like people unlike dux that want to harm humans.

Ok, even though this is not the gobble shack, i will ask a Turkey question. I have quite a few acres, most of it wooded. Where I grew up there were lots of wild turkey. Are there any heritage breeds that might be suitable to turn loose on the property once they were of a size to try to establish a semi wild flock? Or is everything so domesticated as to have no chance out of a coop.
