Turkens Anyone?

19 years ago

Good morning. Just wondering if anyone has any Turkens. I have a chicken flock of 20 mixed hens and one rooster. But the four Turkens are my favorites. They are super friendly, curious, great layers and my constant gardening companions. As soon as they hear the screen door slam they come running and follow me around to assist with the weeding and digging (their contribution is the removal of any worms or bugs that turn up). The other hens will hover around but the turkens have their little heads right in there plucking bugs the instant they are uncovered. And the Turken chicks just make me smile with their tufted caps that make them look like pious little friars. Visitors always ask me what's wrong with those chickens and when I explain what they are and that they are supposed to look like that most will comment that they are the ugliest looking things they've seen. But I think they're beautiful.
