Bantambird.....how cool that you have town turkeys! Is this a small town? There is dome town, I believe in California, that has a neighborhood with an out of control peacock population. Read an article about how half the residents like them and half hate them and all of them are trying to figure out what to do about them...

I had to laugh at the thought of a drone hauling RP poults Ralph...

Hey...how is Snitch doing?

Food Freedom Bill? Now that sound interesting! Is it regulated, or can you sell food products to the public without state involvement?

Bantambird, I have a local baker that will buy every turkey egg I will sell her. Mine arent fertile, so those we don't eat, she gets.

R2elk, didn't know you had a greenhouse. Boy am I jealous of that tomato! I consider them one of the best parts of summer. I plant two sweet orange cherry tomato plants in pots on either side of my front porch. They grow up a trellis and form a small canopy at my front door. And for the five years I've done that, not one ever made it into the house. I literally pick them & eat them right there on the porch. Nothing better than a sun warmed tomato right off the vine! Just the best!

Oh goodness! Thanks folks! Congrats to you too Ralphie!!

Taking a break from the yard. Moving and dividing a few things. Dug up a few grubs so the turkeys are watching over my shoulder just in case.....
Had to lock the chickens into their yard. Everytime I start to stick the shovel into the ground the whole flock jumps into the hole. The turkey girls are more polite about it...sort of....

Survived another round of storms last night. Lots of thunder....annoying when trying to sleep.

I have a question....does turkey hen egg production drop as they age? Like an older heritage bred chicken? Do they quit laying as an older bird?

I haven't seen any bug eye baby pics lately! Y'all are slacking!

Feisty...you out there? Hoping you haven't floated away with all your rain!
