Get turkeys, they said. It’ll be fun, they said….

I’ve always loved turkeys. Even more so since I started raising them. When they follow you around like dogs, you know you’re doing something right.

They’re curious thangs. They want to be involved in EVERYTHING you’re doing…sometimes a little too much.

Today I was just piddling around in the yard, and of course, the turkeys were following me. Which I don’t mind…most days.

Well, I bent over to pick something up, and the back of my shirt comes up.

Now what happened next, if somebody had gotten it on video, it would’ve made somebody rich.

The turkey in question, pictured here, apparently decided that the area between my pants and my shirt looked like a mighty fine place to investigate.

And she went for it.

In the words of Jerry Clower, “It likened to scared me half to death!”

I hollered.

The turkey let out a yelp.

Then the OTHER turkeys started gobbling and yelping.

It turned into a full-blown turkey emergency.

I guess now I know what Forrest meant when he said, “It felt like something jumped up and bit me.”

Well Forrest…in my case, it wasn’t a bullet.

It was a dang turkey.

Y’all be blessed, and for the love of everything holy…wear a belt around these birds.

Feeding this afternoon, while I was out there feeding these 6-foot-tall, crazy-looking chickens, something dawned on me.

They might look crazy. 😂
They might be dumb sometimes.
They might try their best to escape.
And when I’m trying to catch them, they’ll run in every direction EXCEPT the one I need them to go. 😂

But standing there looking at them today, I realized something…

They’re beautiful in their own way.

God has a way of humbling me sometimes. He can take the simplest things and remind me to slow down, appreciate what He’s created, and see the beauty in things I might otherwise overlook.

Today, He used two goofy emus named Skittles and Bubbles to teach me that lesson. ❤️

Y’all be blessed, and take a minute today to appreciate the crazy, beautiful things God has put around you.

🚨🥚 WELL I’LL BE DANGED… WE CAN SHIP!!! 📦🥚

After what feels like 47 years of fighting the heat, the postal service, foam, boxes, and everything else known to man…

WE GOT THE FOAM.
WE GOT THE BOXES.
AND BY GOLLY… WE GOT EGGS!!! 😂

So we’re fixing to start throwing them little speckled nuggets in boxes and sending them down the road! 🤣

We’ll have LIMITED QUANTITIES to start with, so don’t wait until all the eggs are gone and then come knocking on the coop door asking where they went. 😂

If you’ve been waiting on some of our hatching eggs…

👉 COME GET YOU SOME!

The quail are laying.
The boxes are ready.
The foam is foamy.
And I’ve apparently decided shipping eggs through the mail is a perfectly reasonable thing to do. 😂

LET’S GET THIS THANG ROLLIN’!!! 🐦🥚📦

Quality birds. Good eggs. Questionable decisions. 😂

What’s the difference between a BREEDER and a HATCHER?

A breeder cares about the birds.

He watches them. He studies them. He looks at size, color, temperament, egg production, health, and all the other traits he’s trying to improve.

He keeps the best and breeds with a purpose.

But a good breeder also learns something important: if you look hard enough, you can find something wrong with every bird you own. 😂

The goal isn’t to find a perfect bird — because there isn’t one.

The goal is to take the good and the good, stack the traits you want, and keep improving generation after generation.

A HATCHER?

A hatcher does just that.

He hatches.

Eggs go in. Chicks come out. And as long as they hatch, the job is done.

There’s no real regard for what traits are being combined, what genetics are being passed on, or whether the next generation is actually better than the last.

There’s a BIG difference between hatching birds and breeding birds.

We aren’t trying to see how many birds we can hatch.

We’re trying to build better birds.

Quality over quantity. Every generation. 🐦🥚

Packing quail eggs definitely isn’t the most glamorous job on the farm, but someone’s got to do it! 🥚✨
Luckily, I’ve got the best tiny business partner around. My little girl earns $1 for every dozen we sell, so she is fully invested in the egg assembly line. Teaching strong work ethic—and commission structure!—early around here. 💵💪
Small eggs, big life lessons, and precious farm time together. ❤️

I just want to say thank you all for supporting us on this journey. It started almost 2 years ago, when I just wanted some quail cause I thought they were interesting.

Now I’m selling eggs and birds.

Going to start shipping eggs in the very near future

And sat 90 eggs in the incubator last week!

God is good! And we are blessed!

I got a laser and I’m not scared to use it… 😂🔥

We’ve had this laser for almost a year. Life got busy, so it sat there collecting dust… until last week. 😅

Now, what’s a person supposed to do with a laser when he needs signs for his business?

Make the dang signs, of course! 😂

We’re headed to the farmers market this Saturday, so what better way to put this thing to work than making some signs for the booth?

One project turned into another, and I’m quickly finding out that having a laser is a dangerous thing… because now I keep thinking, “I could make that!” 🤣

Come see us at the farmers market Saturday and check out what we’ve been working on!

I spent this morning in the shop with the quail, worship music playing, and making some much-needed improvements to the cages. ❤️🐦

After recommendations from a few people, I finally pulled the trigger on these pigeon auto-watering cups… and let me tell you, WHAT A DIFFERENCE!

The old trough waterer that comes with these QGF cages was a headache. Constantly cleaning it, fighting with the floats to get them working properly, and on top of that, all the birds on one level were sharing the same water.

That means if one bird got sick, there was a possibility of exposing every bird drinking from that same water source. 😬

Now, each breeding cage has its own water supply. 💧

Cleaner water. Less mess. Less maintenance. And most importantly, another step toward healthier birds. ❤️

We believe in quality over quantity, and sometimes that means taking the time to improve the little things that make a big difference.

A productive morning in the shop, worship music in the background, and happy quail… I’d say that’s a pretty good morning. 🙏🐦❤️

🥚 Project Quail are officially in the incubator! 🐣

The eggs from my project quail went into the incubator today! 🙌

I’ve got some Falb Fee in there that I’m working on breeding for size, along with a few Blacks, Tuxedos, and some of my “jail” quail 😂

Now comes the waiting game…

In about 17 days, we’ll see what these little eggs have been hiding! 👀🐣

I’m excited to see what these pairings produce and how this project continues to develop. Quality over quantity! ❤️

Just a few pictures of my quail grow-outs… because why not? 😂🐦

Gotta love a good photogenic bird! ❤️ They’re growing like weeds and getting prettier by the day. 🐣➡️🐥
