When we get a hatch of poults we have to take them from the mom. I know that sounds mean but it is because we have so many preditors such as foxes,owls,hawks and more. Once we get the poults we put them in big tubs. Then they go to the out door cage. We can
move that cage around for them to eat grass and insects. Then they go to the nursery,
a bigger outdoor caged fenced, where they will stay till they get almost as big as the adults.
Then we take the bigger turkeys, which i like to call the teenagers, to the big pen with the adults where they will live till we have a harvest.

Go GT! I like your turkey blog. Thanks for explaining why you have to take the poults from the mom. Now I understand that it's not cruel at all. Do you like your short hair? Miss you.
