Marjorie and Cranberryvu 523 foisWe hatched Cranberry ourselves last summer. When the other turkeys came (we bought them from a hatchery) Cranberry looked horrified. After a few weeks she became friends with them, but at Christmas they went away, one at a time. Cranberry looked so lonely, so we bought her 10 friends. But she seems to prefer our company to that of the other turkeys. She comes running after us, and then crouches down to be rubbed.

Turkey and Duck - Born on the Same Dayvu 5569 foisMay 17 2004 -- Today we had a baby Bronze turkey and a baby duck hatch. We think the duck is part Indian Runner and part wild mallard. They're snuggling together under the heat lamp.

A Young, White Turkeyvu 984 foisAlthough all of our turkeys are Bronze Turkeys, we occasionally get some that are white. There's a strange recessive gene hiding in the gene pool somewhere. This turkey was hatched and raised at Lucies Farm, from an egg laid at our farm. Really "home reared."
