LOL! Feisty your right...he does look like a beach ball!

Aurora...I love that your raising the next generation of turkey lovers!

Ralph, hoping your not any worse for wear after the hen wrassling. I would love to see a shot of Sidekick with the hens.

Not much happening here. So hot & humid its hard to even breath outside. All turkeys & chickens are hugging fans or wading in the pool. Its miserable and getting worse over the weekend. :(

Feisty...looks like the turkey girls are having a blast. Nothing better than relaxing with my turkeys in the evenings.

Heat & humidity increasing here. Just miserable. No relief in site. Will break 100 this weekend. Heat indexes expected to be close to 120. Its so humid i can hardly breath. Ok, enough whining.

Going back to see the surgeon Friday. 3 week check up. Hoping things are healing ok. Im so tired of only using one arm...sighhhh.

Coffee 1st said:
Good morning All,, I just had to drive into town to post how proud I am of my Porter I am so Happy Ralphie had a mini fart to The brain and let me have him. I will try and post a pic of him soon He is Big and Beautiful and King of the farm.. I love reading everything you all post and I wish I could post more but as Ralphie mentioned my Internet is super bad. Hopefully that will change soon . Here is what I drove into town to say,,, Ohh Porter does Love Me .. I was taking out the scrap bowl and I dumped it and I was walking away and I got about 5 ft towards the house and I felt the Red Rooster attack me from behind , he was scratching my ankle and hanging on to my pant leg with his beak. I turned around and hit him with the bowl. And before I knew it Porter ran over jumped on the rooster and beat the crap out of him. The rooster was screaming but I didn't care I was letting Porter handle it. and after a minute the rooster got away he looks kind a messed up but I was proud of my Porter he protected mama. I have a pretty big scratch across my ankle but hopefully that rooster learned a lesson. Porter will get to raid the strawberry patch today and I think I will open the raspberry patch today also just for him.. :). Have a good day all stay safe and happy...
