turkey followed us home...........

[Aj1911]

theres pics of her and her droppings, looks in really good health to me

its hot today hence the panting and wings out to cool off (atleast i think thats why turkeys do that?)

anyway think i'll make her a temp-pen to use and give her atleast a week or 2 before she free ranges

i highly doubt she has anything, i'm more worried that my birds might give her something

As I said I don't bring in new birds or even hatching eggs that can be a source of disease, so I risk nothing.

Didn't you get poults from Kevin Porter last spring? You made posts and put up pictures. Are they with your older turkeys now? What you say and do doesn't quite match.

Why do Steve- of- sandspoultry and omabird have to fight constantly ?
Seems like every post they both post at they start to fight .

This is a poultry site to have fun on and learn . Keep ur bickering to ur personal PM's have some class and keep it to ur selves

The rest of us just want to see pics if her turkey ! I'd love for one to fallow me home !!

I have to go to the auction to buy mine . You get them real cheap and you can find all kinds of breeds .

Hope your néw turkey settles in great and all is well
Good luck !!

it was about 80-90 degrees in the shade today and she was panting pretty good, it just now cooled off and shes still panting a bit

is this normal? i assume so because my chickens were doing the same.

I fill containers up with cool water and my turkeys stand in the containers to cool off. You could try that. My turkeys love to wade in their water containers or the pools.

My birds pant, too. Heck, I can sweat and on these really hot days, I pant a little, myself.
