Turkeys on the deck!!

[wj77]

How do I keep the stupid turkeys off the deck. Everytime I go in the house the turkeys follow me on the deck and wait for me to come out. If any one knows of a way to stop this short of fencing off th stairs please let me know.

THANK YOU

Well I will say my girls love the deck. When we refinished it we even got killer turkey tracks all over it

Our one hen even sits on the railing on the front deck and waits for us to get home. Sorry no help on the how to keep them off

fence it off or fence off somewhere else so they can not make it to your deck.

You can fence them or get a pet cougar to keep chained on your deck. If neither is an option you might want to buy a pressure washer.

We have our deck fenced off and they fly over it.

Go figure.

get used to it...I have Turkeys on my BBQ, Picnic table, in my garden, and chasing me into my barn (Cattle Gates are not effective young turkey retention devices). Good Luck!

Forgot to add, I hate when they decide to roost on the deck when its raining....

and you hear pitter patter on the house roof...

i'm fairly certain not even a pet cougar could keep Runner off the deck.. at one point every cat in the house was crowded around the glass doors wondering what the heck was on the deck.. it was Runner. when she jumped up on the roof and started hoofing it around it sent the cats into fits.
