Funny first time turkey raisers..
Dave was tending to the barn animals last night. He asked me to get the Blu-kot. It’s an antibiotic purple stay to put on birds that are getting pecked..
when I went down to the barn to see which turkey needed to be sprayed, I didn’t see any red, just white skin.. looks like the adult turkeys are MOLTING!!

Merry Christmas!!! Here on the farm we hosted family and had a great meal with family!! We had a turkey we raised and butchered ourselves, the green beans we had in the green bean casserole came from our garden, the eggs that went into the pumpkin pie and stuffing were eggs from our hens. But, I understand that is problematic.. but, hey, farm to table .. baby!!!

12/16/2018

We processed 4 birds today...got a system going...Dave and I are an effective team!

Turkeys getting familiar with their not quite finished turkey tractor.

Still working on fencing and turkeys getting some pasture time!!

08/01/2018

This is August, not September or October and the leaves are green not yellow or red or orange. The trees in my backyard are dropping their leaves due to too much rain.

07/29/2018

I feel so bad!! Yesterday while the chickens were free ranging and we were inside having our lunch, we had a possible bear attack.
We are down to 7 chickens, with one with injuries..she has been pretty traumatized..we had 13....there is evidence of at least one death and the rest of the 6 chickens are missing.
The dogs did not alert!

07/21/2018

Loki says hi!!! And an afternoon out on the pasture for the turkeys... and a pic of my handicap turkey..

07/16/2018

First off.. I have a turkey with a lame leg. It eats and drinks so is still thriving.
Picture of the turkeys in their sunroom.
And an update on the next leg of the fence. Once, this leg is done, Bali the goat will be untethered and I’ll be able to get my three fiber male alpacas!!!

07/09/2018

Garden done!! Mulch was put down. Looks so good.
Turkeys are getting big, enjoying a little sun time.
Dave starting the fence on the other side of the property!!!
