They are going to study the genetics of wilds. Then compare the oddball wilds, smoke phase for ex, to heritage genetics.

I have a wild woman hanging to do her part to mess up the genetics. I guess I should run her off.

The problem is that they are ignoring the fact that the wild turkeys do have genetic mutations which is where most of the domestics came from.

I can't stop them from cruising through to get bred occasionally. They usually leave immediately after they get what they want, the hussies.

Awww sweetie... you must be cold. But the eggs are safe from the snow if it landed on her, I guess. She looks so cute!
Here we got rain and the grass is turning green. Looks like it's green grass there too.

25°F with 11°F predicted.

She was just there to lay an egg and is not broody. I gathered the egg when she returned to the pen later.

On PBS they were talking about wedding in Mexico where they dance with turkeys as part of the celebration. They showed a pair of SG but didn't show the dance.
I found a short clip from somewhere else. Has anyone heard of such a thing?
