The menagerie is growing.

We were given two turkeys, a male and a female, seen here eating green stuff with the chickens.   We harvest edible weeds and vegetable matter for them when their camps have been denuded.


The turkeys add a wonderful dimension with their different sounds.   Apart from his belligerent koeloekoeloekoeloe they converse with musical little tweeps which I find very endearing.   Soon they will be separated from the chickens, because we have plans to keep geese and ducks in a large camp with them, with a dam and nesting sites better suited to their size.
