We adopted a bird dog a couple of years ago. Our birds are kept in an aviary for safety's sake and let out only occasionally, but I still thought that it would be a good idea to explain to Grizz that the turkeys weren't to be chased. Eventually we came to an understanding; he let me know that he wouldn't chase the birds....at least as long as I was nearby!
I need to add another turkey egg to each of the three Silkie nest boxes. I went out to put them up last evening, and three hens were snuggled in one 12"x 12" box; the one with the egg!
