Turkeys Stomping

[turkeylady3]

I love the turkey stomp! My fiances dad had a broad breasted bronze that was about 5 years old and would stomp all the time! Unfortunately he passed away last year after he hurt his foot they now have a half white/half wild male that we think is a little over a year old, I haven't seen him stomping yet though...

I wasn't sure how long turkeys live. I know not to long so since mine r 3 years I keep a close eye on them. Last summer my male was limping so I was concerned since he's so huge. But after a couple weeks he was better. I couldn't get close enough to really examine his leg

I've seen it a couple times. It's usually when there is something new to him that he stomps and displays at it. The most recent was a envelope I dropped in the way back with the mail. The hen didn't seem to even care but all the chickens came running to him to see what he had.

Here is a video of my turkey buddy Prince Charming who likes me an awful lot. Maybe too much.
