Ah, thank you. ;-)
Do turkeys prefer to nest on the ground or in higher elevation? Again, I'm a newbie at raising turkeys, but I know she will be laying eggs very soon and want to make sure I have a good setup for her.
Very nice. This is the same system I plan on building this week though I will make it smaller as I only have two birds at the time, but plan on moving up to about a dozen.
Thanks.
Well, you are right...they've yet to spend more than 5 minutes in it. Hopefully she's at least scoping it...
An update....
I went into the goats pen and elevated the plastic dog igloo and cleaned it out real good...adding fresh straw to it in hopes that the turkeys will find home there.
This should hold them over until I find a better way to house them.
Okay, first, I will point out that i am very new to turkeys. I have two at the moment. A Chocolate tom and hen and both are adults.
Up front question... What is the difference between the three; "Roost", "Shelter" and "Coop"?
Are coops referred to for chickens to be protected from...
