    Turkey are good for more than food.

    Came home today to find this in my chicken run, I guess my turkey called up a wild turkey and he got in my chicken run. This is the first wild turkey I have ever seen on my place.

    I would name him Izzy Scout!! Only a scout could invade a chicken coop and not be noticed as an outsider. This turkey has Izzy written all over it.

    This is the difference between me an Helo.... Fearing heavy blood loss from TTS (Turkey Talon Scratches) and possibly the loss of an eye or two, I would have gladly snapped a photo of the wild bird while it rummaged around safely imprisoned inside of my chicken run (If I had one)
    Helo, however scoops the bird up with his bare arms, like it's nothing more than a house pet and poses for a formal Photo Op.

    You're a braver man than me Helo!!!

    um. . . wen kin we eat it?
    RELIGION IS LIKE A PENIS
    Its fine to have one,
    Its fine to be proud of it,
    But please dont whip it out in public and start waving it around,
    And PLEASE dont try to force it down my children's throats.

    An armed society is a polite society. Manners are good when one may have to back up his acts with his life.

    Doh! I was gonna ask Helo who the guy was that was holding him.

    Will Izzy be disappointed if he finds out it is a hen? Lucky you - that won't happen too often.
    Just because we are peaceful does not mean we have forgotten how to be violent.
