That's what I think too. <br /><br />Did it sound like, "aggoooblegooblegoooble"? <br /><br />Hi LinB! There is never a dull moment around here...<br /><br />Yep, Heather, our BR's grew out slowly also it was more like 8 or 9 months but we got some beautiful birds. <br /><br />FLiz, yep. That's the way of it. They do not like new things and stick close to home. Usually. <br /><br />Hey Todd! Yep, Tom is a fine name for a turkey.. hee hee hee. I can't wait to get some in the smoker - going to be delish!<br /><br />Amanda, turkey are very very funny. They are such big gawky birds... its always something with them.

He would follow me everywhere and was pretty darn smart. He kept POOPING under my mom's closeline, not smart, he ended up in the oven.<br />Thank you for sharing !

The 2 girls got out first, but the 2 boys took about half an hour to figure out how the door worked (as in how to walk out through the door). Then they all jumped up on the cage and sat there. I only let them out twice, there were just too unpredictable.

The...My turks are growing like snails I feel like. They're bourbons though so I'm comparing them to how my bronzes grew years ago and that's like comparing a broiler to a heritage breed chicken lol <br />Whenever mine are introduced to anything new it's hilarious. I gave them a half of an over grown zucchini a couple weeks ago and the two of them stood around it pipping and wing-karate chopping it to make sure it wasn't alive I guess.<br />It took one of 'their' chickens (the faverolles are their buddies) finally eating on it to get them to stop beating it hahaAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05036073775318677470noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7789865586418282697.post-82936745797249012602013-08-07T10:31:59.900-04:002013-08-07T10:31:59.900-04:00Over the decade he has worked for us, our Turkey h...Over the decade he has worked for us, our Turkey has tripled in size... To the point of when he complains about lack of seat comfort I reply, "It's the pants honey..."
