Why...

I have a solution!

The shorter legged turkeys got me thinking. I like big thick drumsticks. I have figured out a way to get bigger drumsticks and keep the turkeys out of the tomatoes.


ANKLE WEIGHTS!


If I use ankle weights they will get bigger legs, and as an added benefit they will not be able to jump high enough to get over the fence.

A true win/win!

I googled ankle weights for turkeys.......

The computer churned, and churned......

It still has not found anything to report.....

Ralphie may just have to design & market them himself! A whole line of turkey accessories could be developed! I think a knitted snood to keep their bald heads & necks warm in the winter could be a winner! Or turkey knee socks. Keep those long legs warm. There is a ton of chicken accessories available. The turkey market is wide open!!

I need to patent ankle weights for turkeys. Any idea how I do that?

Well Ralphie..I imagine you need to design them first. Then develop a prototype. Then apply for a patent.
Of course you will spend time modifying your design until it works perfectly. You could practice on those guineas!

Obviously, you have missed my Ad on the Minnesota thread.

Saw your ad Ralph. Poor little wayward guineas.

I have read a lot of your posts and there is nothing innocent about you.  You are lucky that your DW puts up with you.  Why didn't you put a taller fence around the tomato plant?

Lol I agree 100%.
