My Turkey Babies

[OsceolaMomma]

This is my share for the day. This photo is my 4 day old Osceola Turkey babies with their feather duster mom, believe it or not there are 7 under there.

Where did you get that duster? I have been looking everywhere

I got mine from my local Ace Hardware oddly enough, but I have also seen them at Wal-Mart or Amazon.

Thanks, I'll look again. It's been a couple months

Wal-Mart is always a hit or miss kinda place but for sure Amazon. Good Luck and my baby turkeys still love it and they are 3.5 weeks old.

Hey guys, I was just give some older adult Osceolas. How do they do in the cold? I live in Utah and have many free ranging turkeys and just want to know if I need to shelter these osceolas during the winter or if they will be fine.

How great that photo would be on a Calendar- something totally different.

I thought about submitting this one or one like it but I didn’t know if it was a chickens only kinda calendar?

I’m NO turkey pro so please don’t hold me responsible, but I have raised my Osceolas from eggs in the oven to they are now almost 20 weeks old since they are a south native turkey I would lean towards yes, BUT they are an animal and they do acclimate so maybe try both. I’m sure they will tend to do whatever your other guys and girls do. Post some pics I would love to see them. They are such a cool bird and beautiful.
