As you can see, our turkey has grown quite a bit! She isn’t nearly as skittish as the chickens, which is quite annoying when I come to throw out scratch for them early every afternoon; she will get up right behind me while I’m getting the corn from its bin, which means when I back out of the corner I often step on her toes because she’s directly behind me (and being a literal bird-brain, she never learns it’s a bad idea to stand there). I hope it’ll be better when we expand the coop in the next few weeks, and it’ll be interesting to try her eggs when she finally starts laying. We’re actually not getting as many eggs as usual right now, but that should change once the four white pullets start laying; normally that starts in July, but remember we got these later than usual, so I expect it’ll be a couple more weeks before we start seeing those.
