Our first time raising turkeys has been... interesting to say the least. Out here in Cedar Grove, we've raised thousands of chickens. So, how different could turkeys be? The answer is very different.
Turkeys have a hell of a lot more personality and urge to explore the world. We learned that lesson about 5 minutes after letting them out on to open pasture. If there's an open gate or a hole in a fence, a turkey will find it and promptly make its escape.
Now that we've learned to wrangle these critters (barring the occasional group of escapees) our turkeys have been happily growing in their pasture. Foraging all day long and exploring their space. It's been a learning experience, but one we hope will be well worth it come Thanksgiving season!
