My Turkey Was Killed So I Built THIS

Sadly one of our young turkey poults was killed so I built them something that will house and protect them moving forward. Olive and the barn cats hang out and keep me company too. #turkey #homestead #familyfarm #barncat

We're building infrastructure to accomodate future growth such as barns, duck house, 7 coop chicken house, water hydrants, planting an orchard, building a garden etc. Chickens, ducks, geese, mini pigs, rabbits, a bunch of barn cats and two old english sheepdogs make up our team here at the farm. Please follow along on our journey of transforming this place into something special.

I always love the ‘one speed Fozzy ‘ saunter across the yard😊

Minks are excellent rat catchers, Saw a documentary where in Alaska a barn was over run by rats, so a rat catcher with minks was hired. I don't recall how many, buy maybe 50 rats killed a couple of hours with 4-5 trained minks (weasels).

Have you considered adding some venting screens near the top of the tower to encourage air flow?

To keep burrowing critters out of dirt floored enclosures try using recycled (crushed) concrete as the base.
Given some depth, the aggregate interlocks making it impervious to rodents.

Turkey hut needs big fan pulling air out to keep air circulating and help with hot humid days.

Hardware cloth on the floor of the coop.
Rats would have difficulty reaching through to grab the fowl's head. I use half inch.

Couldn't u put the turkeys in with the rabbits?? Also try and get Mangos collar back on. Try giving him some treats and see if that helps😊😊😊❤❤❤
