My first turkeys

any tips or advice on raising turkeys would be much appreciated!

been raising chickens, ducks and geese for a couple decades but never any turkeys but have been thinking about it for a couple years.

well I ran to town this morning for supplies and tractor supply had turkeys so now I have 3 baby bronze turkeys. had to slap together a quick brooder since I have chicks in my main brooder. old dog crates work great for tops to keep the cats out and I use the door panels for easy access.

Beaver Castor lure

got next years beaver lure made.

I save the biggest beavers castor and oil sacks for one batch that I use in fall and winter.

and then I save the smallest beavers castor and oil sacks for the second batch that I use for spring time that I also add food type lure to also.

it's super simple, I just cut the oil sacks open and drain and add the castor and some glycerin and puree. if it's to thick I'll add more glycerin and if it comes out to runny I just add some saw dust or wheat bran to get it to the consistency I want
