Turkeys and Puppies

Wayne insisted on expanding the chicken family by adding a few turkeys. He and Michelle went out yesterday and bought 5 turkeys. They are pretty cute. I suspect they will be naughtier than the chickens. Maggie also had some puppies the other day. If was funny because she had them inside the old tree. She has 4 boys and 2 girls. We did get them moved into the barn yesterday. At first Maggie was a little distraught, but then she chilled out.

Here are 3 white turkeys. The guy at the feed store said their's got to be 60 pounds last year.


Here are 2 little brown turkeys. They are smaller now, but who know about later.

Maggie and the puppies buried deep inside the tree. This picture is taken from about 3 feet out. She is way inside the tree. Penny went in and pulled the puppies out with a shovel thing.


The is the tree she was in
Just to the right of the middle is a dark spot with a limb coming out of it. The dark spot is the opening that Maggie climbed into. She actually had the puppies on the back side of the tree. It is a pretty cool hidey hole if you ask me. I searched for her for hours the other day before I found her.
