Surprise poultry came today very pleased
« on: May 16, 2012, 01:32:35 pm »
Got my surprise box of poultry this morning 42 total, out of those 2 are ducks, 2 are turkerys, and 2 are still a mystery might be quail of some sort. The rest are mix of different type/breed chickens. I am excited about the turkeys they appear to be black spanish turkeys which won't be for eating :) they are considered a rare breed turkey. Its bugging me that I can't figure out what the 2 mystery ones are

Someone really ought to tell them that the world of Ayn Rand?s novel was not meant to be aspirational.

Congrats on your new little ones.  They sound happy.

Looked up your exotic two.  Sounds like the boys identify themselves early.
