Title: Turkey help
Post by: manian on February 13, 2011, 01:21:22 pm
hi
we went to get some more hens and came back with 5 turkey hens and a stag!!!! (luckily they are staying there until we are sorted) :)

so we have a busy week ahead!!!!
crash course in turkey husbandry, build turkey coop ( are they called that????)
buy some saddles for hens!!!!

hopefully will be breeding and then having some as growers and some to sell,

any ideas where to start???? ???
the male (stag as i learnt today ;) ) is a slate and the hens are norfolk black-  what do people think

been reading back questions on here as a start


OH thinks i'm mad...... our 2nd batch of weaners arrive this week as well!!!!
